Intensity Priority (2005)

Made during an artist residency at the Experimental Television Center, Intensity Priority is the result of a collaborative documentaiton project with video tool designer and engineer Dave Jones, during which he demonstrated his Jones Colorizer. The video output of this demonstration was later performed as a graphic score by The Open Music Ensemble during Eyes and Ears: Sound Needs Image (co-curated by Joanna Raczynska and Will Redman for the Carnegie Art Center in 2005) and was later featured on a DVD of the same name and released by Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center in 2006. The Jones Colorizer demonstration video was featured in Experimental Television Center: Early Media Instruments, a DVD boxset produced by the Video History Project and is distributed by Signal Culture.
