About the Artist
Anthony Valade
Anthony Valade currently resides in Winnipeg, Manitoba where they create and develop their personal perspective of false memories, vivid dreams, dense nightmares, and sensory intoxication through audio/visual representation. Using techniques such as, but not limited to; directional audio, noise experimentation, dialogue sampling, mood lighting, nostalgia for vintage consumer-grade electronics, and live analog video mixing, Anthony creates unconventional yet somewhat vaguely familiar moments for spectators with the hope they will discover something new about themselves.
SLFMAE Research
During the residency, Anthony plans to explore analog video augmentation through the means of live camera feed and analog editing system feedback. This research will also incorporate how external lighting systems can be introduced in feedback loops to create a more intense or vibrant visual product.
