Meghana Iyer | Garry st.

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.

Chukwudubem Ukaigwe | Tracing Currents

Originally developed from his Scott Leroux Fund for Media Arts Exploration Residency, Tracing Currents is a new, immersive multi-channel installation that cites multiple degrees of casual and fleeting happenings. This work colligates both extensive and distinct records of Afro-diasporic mappings by means of juxtaposing ambient and evanescent videos of African life with documentations of Black families dining together in Canada.

Örjan Sandred and Max Sandred | Sonic Trails: Lockdown

“Sonic Trails : Lockdown” is a multimedia installation reflecting on a city in Covid-19 lockdown. Using algorithms for Artificial Intelligence, a visitor is transferred between concrete and abstract experiences in a 3-dimensional world created through projections on semi-transparent screens and a multi-channel loudspeaker system. The installation is created by Max and Örjan Sandred and is based on material recorded during the 2021 pandemic in Winnipeg.

Erin Laye on Azimuth Nitehi

We are all just particles, drifting this way and that, with no clear place to go. In the installation “Azimuth Nitehi” you begin to embody the void and explore the outer reaches of a universe reminiscent of the milky way. The difference between our galaxy and this one is that the cold vacuum of space that we are familiar with, has become illuminated and brought to life by the particles within it. Enter this augmented reality where you are your heartbeat, and the average sum of all of the heartbeats around you. The inward force that connects you to the rest of humanity is brought outward.

Azimuth Nitehi | Dallas Flett Wapash + Taylor McArthur

Commissioned by VP during the pandemic, the dynamic duo of Dallas + Taylor developed Azimuth Nitehi, a combination of Nakota and Swampy Cree that roughly translates to “Moving Hearts.”

Azimuth Nitehi is an online experience being launched on November 5th and brought to life in exhibition form in Poolside Gallery.
