Flat Is Beautiful: The Strange Case of Pixelvision
August 10 - 16, 2018
Ben Coonley recently created a suite of ingenious experiments using two side-by-side PXL 2000s, testing, in the process, the dimensional limits of Pixelvision’s low res properties. These videos will be on view in the Film Society’s amphitheater throughout the week of the series
A free 3D presentation as part of our Pixelvision series!
For artist Ben Coonley, “mismatched (or ‘non-stereoscopic’ or ‘dissonant’) 3D is the unexplored frontier of 3D cinema.” He has recently ventured into this territory with a suite of ingenious experiments using two side-by-side PXL 2000s, testing, in the process, the dimensional limits of Pixelvision’s low res properties. These videos will be on view in the Film Society’s amphitheater throughout the week of the series. Videos courtesy of the artist and Microscope Gallery.
