Paradigm TV is a cast of video collaborations and solo works directed by Scott Leroux. Broadcasting through four channels Paradigm TV has something for everyone Experimental, Contemporary Dance, Music Videos, even Nature. As you flip through the channels you might find your self bombarded by a blast of colourful glitched-out pixels, soothed by a flower in the wind, mesmerized by the careful movement of a human body, or feeling nostalgic by a throwback to 90s music video culture. No matter what you’ll find something for you on Paradigm TV.

The world has taken us down a strange path— one where sexism, racism and environmental disregard dominates and continues to persist. Many have risen up and fought for a more compassionate world, but despite this, we have found ourselves in a time where a man who embodies these exploitative ways runs the most powerful country in the world.

You have woken from a dream into somewhere even stranger. A woman dances alone in a room. The image is distorted, but you can make her out. A stream of individuals, one after another, watches the woman. Some are curious, some baffled, some upset. But there is no denying this act of dual voyeurism is exciting. Each new random individual representing a potential interlocutor, changing the experience of the performance. Multiple paths branch out. This is our starting point.
