Mariah Carey/Boyz II Men(2009, 86MB, 4:49min)
Splendid bit of drôlerie from Dan Osborne, whose work
we’ve featured here before and certainly will again.
It’s funny, sure, but as with a good deal of Osborne’s work it
treads an interesting line between funny bone and heartstring.
Oh..alright..maybe heartstring is a bit strong but there’s a
certain, and a rather touching, melancholy lurking here.
Also – what is it about Mariah Carey and art video on the net?
Regardless (2007, 14MB, 3:37 min.)
A woman calls you from inside a monitor and asks you to touch her.
Yes, you. This call is for you. A presence in a box requests contact in
a game of vulnerability, seduction and power. It is a call for contact now,
but it is also a call to reflect on relationships, strength and weakness,
ethics. How do you respond to vulnerability? What do you offer?
What do you ask for? What do you take?

“Using 6 metres of fabric, the artist engages the viewer in a highly
personal act, playing on notions of the gaze. The artist maintains
a strong gaze of her own looking beyond the audience.
The performance becomes a drawing as the fabric becomes a line
that fills the space.”
Excerpt from a 5 min. single channel video loop by Farheen HaQ.
Solo Show (2006, 25MB, 6:22 min.)
Solo Show takes the viewer on a short trip in a complicit game of art making.
The image overlaps the body of the viewer with that of the artist. As the frame
moves from place to place, formats and titles are recalled in an attempt to
uncover the dynamics of making meaning by calling things art.

the sticks). Or blame it on my desire to bridge old and new
media. A trailer oddly lacking actual jug footage, still a nice
montage.
