SLFMAE 2026: Along the Red River on my Broken TV – Orima Bendisse

Part of the 2026 Scott Leroux Fund for Media Arts Exploration.
VP is pleased to announce the one-night-only public presentation Along the Red River on my Broken TV by Orima Bendisse, recipient of the 2026 Scott Leroux Fund for Media Arts Exploration.

Orima’s proposal for the residency centred on his longstanding interest in analog audio/video and the unique qualities it offers over digital image-making. As he describes it, analog A/V allows an image to be read slowly, frame by frame, in a way that digital cannot replicate; where digital is either there or not, analog can be split, stretched, and scrolled through with a different kind of physical feeling.
