A Presentation of the 2022 Scott Leroux Fund for Media Arts Exploration

During Meghana’s time in Winnipeg participating in the Scott Leroux residency, life was nothing but filled with chaotic adventures. As a first-time visitor to Winnipeg, the experiences she had were quite unique and proved to contribute to the works she was creating at Video Pool. From filming and exploring around downtown to spending late nights in the analog suite, every day was filled with special moments. Titled Garry St. this installation-based presentation will showcase multiple videos displayed through various screens such as projectors and CRTs of the different experimentation and filmmaking that was captured during the month-long residency.

Adrian cn Berry-Gold Cove ∈ RITUAL

Gold Cove ∈ RITUAL is a multi-channel video installation featuring the latest audio-visual collaboration
between AI entity RITUAL & art-pop performer Gold Cove. Blurring the disciplinary lines between
music video production, ethnofiction, and cinematic storytelling, Gold Cove ∈ RITUAL is a glimpse into
the future of cultural work through the eyes of surveillance capitalism. From whimsical visions of AI
fueled desire to technicolor, this project presents a vibrant collage-based animation and rhythmic visual
poetry constructed from videos found from deep within the Internet.
