Yonge-Dundas Square, Toronto
Year Zero One is pleased to present TRANSMEDIA :29:59, a year long
exhibition on the pedestrian level video billboard at Yonge-Dundas
Square in downtown Toronto. Launched August 1st 2005, TRANSMEDIA :
29:59 features one minute video works 24/7 every half hour on the
29th and 59th minutes. Featured for the month of May is Nelly-Eve =
Rajotte's 'Olla' and Peter Eudenbach 's 'Streetcorner Solitude (for
Glenn Gould) '.
Peter Eudenbach’s Streetcorner Solitude (for Glenn Gould) Is a =
silent homage to Glenn Gould, pianist, experimental musician, and
hunter/gatherer of sound. This video collage is meant to coexist with
the ambient sounds of Yonge-Dundas Square
Nelly-Eve Rajotte's Olla incorporates imagery that is generally split=
or superimposed before melting again into another frame. The artist
transforms the images, reducing them to their formal components and
compressing them at times into horizontal bands. A play on form
progressively stretches across the surface of the screen, allowing us
to follow the modification of the images collated from reality by the
artist. The original motif is at times indistinguishable by the eye,
but retained by the memory.

TRANSMEDIA :29:59 is curated by Michael Alstad + Michelle Kasprzak
