Description: Shift
Shift was a collaborative project that involved Tom Stroud, choreographer and artistic director of the Winnipeg Contemporary Dancers; the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Glenn Buhr, composer in residence of the Winnipeg Symphony; Margaret Sweatman, writer; and Hugh Connacher, lighting designer and was shown at the Winnipeg Art Gallery in November 1995. Through the use of sound, light, video projections and three constructed spaces, an experience was created that emulated the movement of visitors/bodies through a gallery. The opportunity to work in combination with actual bodies provided an opportunity to reaffirm the materiality and the somatic experience of our bodies through lived experience.

Excerpts from 1990 artist statement:
“I am fascinated by the ways in which art making is able to simulate a reality that can be manipulated to explore underlying cultural assumptions. I have been particularly interested in investigating how cultural codes are mediated through electronic technology and manifest themselves in our attitudes and behaviour. Have we become a culture whose information and ideas are given forms solely by electronic images? Have we created a new form of representation that irreversibly impacts upon our definitions of reality and identity?
Since a home is the primary location in which this information impacts upon us, I constructed the installation as a home setting and altered the physical objects normally associated with this environment. In this space, images and sounds repeat and overlap creating a visual and electronic bombardment that mirrors the insidious bombardment of our current technological value system."

Collaboration between Reva Stone and Richard Dyck
Excerpts from statement: 1994
They corresponded through found objects to create the graphic, audio, and programming elements of No One... ...in Conversation.....This correspondence lasted abut eight months. Reva sent Rick the first object, a beautiful 1957 family photograph, and got the "conversation" going. From the photo he approached and created his first Amiga element. Then he sent Reva an object, a 1957 penny (he never sent her what he created, neither did she ever send him what she created). Using the penny, she approached and created her first Mac element. What she created she kept private from him and vice versa. This privacy assured them independence. The exchange of objects itself provided a vital spine for the project: they weren't random objects, but "words" to their conversation. To try to decipher what they were talking about with these objects, Rick kept a list, attempting with it something like dream analysis.

Work ID: 78858
Description: Shift
Shift was a collaborative project that involved Tom Stroud, choreographer and artistic director of the Winnipeg Contemporary Dancers; the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Glenn Buhr, composer in residence of the Winnipeg Symphony; Margaret Sweatman, writer; and Hugh Connacher, lighting designer and was shown at the Winnipeg Art Gallery in November 1995. Through the use of sound, light, video projections and three constructed spaces, an experience was created that emulated the movement of visitors/bodies through a gallery. The opportunity to work in combination with actual bodies provided an opportunity to reaffirm the materiality and the somatic experience of our bodies through lived experience.

Interstitial Spaces
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78846
Description: Interstitial Spaces
In this work, my intent was to evoke our unacknowledged complicity in the shifts in the stability of our own increasingly technologized bodies. For each exhibition venue, I responded to the specific sites by altering the space of the gallery and the components of the installation.
In the installation at the Dunlop Gallery in Regina, Saskatchewan, the common window wall between the adjoining library and the gallery acted as a metaphoric membrane that sat between the gallery/body and the external world. Through the window of the gallery, intimate enlargements of body/skin slowly dissolved from one image to another. These images were projected onto two layers of theatrical scrim progressing back to the far wall of the gallery. Some images implied or evoked fusion between the body and a computer, others skin/animal pelts. Still others read as internal body parts. A video camera pointed out into the space of the library was triggered by anyone approaching the window. Their image was picked up by the camera and merged into the body projections. Entering the space of the gallery triggered an audiotape.
Embedded into the projected image on the back wall was the following text:
Already have I once been a boy and a girl,
and a bush and a bird,
and a silent fish in the sea.
Empedocles (circa 440 BCE)

Work ID: 78921
Description: veridicalBody
In veridicalBody (1998), I continue to investigate the medical changes are altering our conceptions of life and death. The underlying promise of medical technologies is immortality. Yet we live within vulnerable bodies - bodies that deal daily with trauma, disease, decay and death. What is a factual or truthful body given medical and other technological interventions? Has there every really been a factual body? Hasn't the response to our own bodies always been socially contructed?
On a side wall, a clinical stainless steel device hangs above a stainless steel shelf. When the viewer places a hand on the shelf, an intimate enlargement of their moving hand is projected into the bottom left corner of the panoramic image. First projected in real time, the image is then captured and projected several more times. Each time the image is projected it deteriorates and fades until it disappears. The projected images of viewers' hands are simultaneously recorded onto videotape. This videotape of hands emerging and fading is projected by a third video projector into the right hand corner of the panorama to create a history of the experience of the installation/body.
A slowly moving panorama, responsive to the movement of the viewer in the exhibition space, is projected to fill the far wall of the gallery space. As the viewer moves left, the image moves to the left and continue to move until the viewer changes location. Moving to the right moves the image to right; moving forward gradually zooms the image into pixilated close up; moving backward zooms the image out. The viewer's actions are controlling a continuous landscape of aging, post-surgical bodies.

sentientBody
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78862
Description: sentientBody
In sentientBody, my intent is to explore the shifts in the stability of our own increasingly technologized bodies by pointing to the body as a transformative site constantly in the process of becoming.
On one wall of the gallery, a large video projection contains imagery in which the motion of waves dragging over sand or over our bodies becomes indistinguishable to suggest bodily mutability over time.
In the middle of the gallery, a stainless steel container is filled with slowly circulating water. When the viewer walks toward the container, an image of their moving body is projected downward into the water. First projected in real time, the image is then captured and projected several more times. Each time the image is projected it deteriorates and fades until it disappears. The water also decays over time.
Emerging from the stainless steel container is the sound of a pump and motor calibrated to pump the water at the same rate as we breathe. The 'breathing' water moving through the stainless steel container suggests internal liquids moving through the body, the fluids from which we’ve developed, as well as a technological life support system.

Carnevale 3.0
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78868
Description: Carnevale 3.0
Carnevale 3.0 consists of a life-sized, double aluminum cutout surrogate of the artist as a young girl that moves through the gallery space on a robotic platform. Sandwiched between two identical cutouts are a small video camera and a small video projector. As visitors enter the gallery space, the figure interacts with them by turning and moving toward them. At random intervals, their image and movement is video captured. These images are combined and overlaid with previously stored images and projected outward from its metal body through the small video projector. Carnevale 3.0 carries images from each of its venues to the next, building a database of lived experience in which the captured video images become memories of the original event. As a mediator of experience this robotic entity has the ability to manifest human behavior by generating responsive movements, processing information, and accessing long term or short term memory. Recollection, physicality and sentience become mutable entities.

Carnevale 3.0
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78870
Description: Carnevale 3.0
Carnevale 3.0 consists of a life-sized, double aluminum cutout surrogate of the artist as a young girl that moves through the gallery space on a robotic platform. Sandwiched between two identical cutouts are a small video camera and a small video projector. As visitors enter the gallery space, the figure interacts with them by turning and moving toward them. At random intervals, their image and movement is video captured. These images are combined and overlaid with previously stored images and projected outward from its metal body through the small video projector. Carnevale 3.0 carries images from each of its venues to the next, building a database of lived experience in which the captured video images become memories of the original event. As a mediator of experience this robotic entity has the ability to manifest human behavior by generating responsive movements, processing information, and accessing long term or short term memory. Recollection, physicality and sentience become mutable entities.

Imaginal Expression 5
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78903
Description: Imaginal Expression Print Series
In the early 1990's, I completed an installation that consisted of three-dimensional images of protein molecules. This installation implicated the body in a complex interplay between representations of embodiment and assumptions underlying visualization technology. The molecules were wrapped with scanned imagery that referenced the living body—flesh, hair, blood vessels, bruising, and scarring. Details from the wrapped three-dimensional molecules were then rendered from the custom software program to create the Imaginal Expression Series of 8 giclee prints.

Imaginal Expression
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78884
Description: Imaginal Expression
In Imaginal Expression, I continue to explore issues surrounding technology’s reconfiguration of the human body. The imagery is derived from technological representations of protein molecules that make up the basic units of living cells and direct all biological processes. They are responsible for alterations in the genetic makeup of all organisms. I use these molecular components to provide a visual metaphor through which I can express my questions and concerns about an expanding scientific field that has the potential to change the very nature of what it means to be human.

Engram 12, Print Series
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78918
Description: Engram Print Series
‘Engram’ is an historical, hypothetical concept coined by memory researcher Richard Semon, as a way to explain the way in which memory traces are stored as biophysical or biochemical changes in the brain.
Each of the images in this series suggests a fleeting moment captured in time. They are iconic fragments of common life experiences intended to remind us of how our identities are constructed from memory and bodily existence.
The Engram Series is part of a multi-faceted body of work that includes robotic installations such as Carnevale (2002) and Portal (2012). This work investigates the cultural, social, and technological contexts that give rise to consciousness, thought and memory.

Portal
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78890
Description: Portal
Portal is an interactive installation work that uses altered cell phones to investigate how networked devices for human communication are dramatically transforming the intersections between our bodies, our consciousness and our machines. The phones are programmed to perform a series of specific behaviours that give them the appearance of sentience. The use of recorded audio and video, rotating motors, video capture to evolve the content, and the phone's accelerometer for touch response all add to the illusion of consciousness. This work is in its final testing stages.

Engram 4, Print Series
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78910
Description: Engram Print Series
‘Engram’ is an historical, hypothetical concept coined by memory researcher Richard Semon, as a way to explain the way in which memory traces are stored as biophysical or biochemical changes in the brain.
Each of the images in this series suggests a fleeting moment captured in time. They are iconic fragments of common life experiences intended to remind us of how our identities are constructed from memory and bodily existence.
The Engram Series is part of a multi-faceted body of work that includes robotic installations such as Carnevale (2002) and Portal (2012). This work investigates the cultural, social, and technological contexts that give rise to consciousness, thought and memory.

Carrier Signal
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78895
Description: Carrier Signal
Hilary Harp (USA) and Reva Stone (Canada) collaborated to create this work that uses vintage radios to mark the centenary of the birth of John Cage (Sept. 5, 1912) and the 20th anniversary of his death (Aug. 12, 1992). This work takes into account the impending demise of analog radio and its replacement by a digital signal. As a result of this technological change, important compositions of John Cage's work for radio which includes Radio Music (1955) and Imaginary Landscape No. 4 (1951) may soon not be performable at all.
Cage’s works for radio were based on scores developed through chance operations, which designated a series of tunings and volumes for radios. The compositions that resulted included static between stations, silence, and bursts of talk and music. In Cage’s compositions live performers adjusted the knobs on the radio according to Cage’s score. We developed an electro-mechanical system, using programmable stepper motors to tune vintage radios, producing similar compositions. Our system includes the capacity to record the compositions, preserving the sounds of the soon to be obsolete radio signals in a database for our future use.

Instructograph
Artist: Reva Stone
Work ID: 78897
Description: Instructograph
Instructograph was commissioned by Grant Guy for his Adhere and Deny Theatre, in 2011. I was asked to make a small circus object no bigger than a bread box. It has become the first in a series of ambiguous, obsolete objects that I plan to re-purpose.
An HDMI monitor is built into the top of the lid. A glass shelf adds a second layer inside the box. These shelves hold a small Beagleboard computer, an external hard drive, an infrared sensor, the original cranking mechanism, etc. In the video documentation provided, you can see the Linux operating system on the screen. The operating system is installed on an SD card.
When the Instructograph is first plugged in the computer starts up, a light comes on inside the box to reveal the inner workings through a plexi glass window that was cut into the front of the box, and a random display of videos starts to show on the screen. These introductory videos consist of diverse images and the musical work the Entry of the Gladiators that is commonly associated with the circus. These videos continue to play until the crank at the side of the box is turned. At that point, the videos switch to another group of videos that refer to the history of the circus.
