HOURS IN THE DARK

Two multimedia artists bridge the gap

Comments (0) By Zach Baron Tuesday, May 20 2008

Sometime letter presser, aphorism dealer, and painter Matthew Brannon recorded the last page in a very long novelin this year’s Whitney Biennial Park Avenue Armory annex, using sounds collected via “Words on a page, ink on paper, and hours in the dark.” Brannon then combined the results with actual nighttime recordings made in the Armory’s cavernous confines for his debut CD; tonight, the Whitney hosts a release party. Luke Fischbeck’s Lucky Dragons, whose sound-and-video installation at the Armory was a Whitney highlight, provides the entertainment: His immersive, participatory live shows involve motion and pressure sensors, dancing, and the occasional group hug.
