UPTOWN GIRL
Dallas artists create post-modern tech art
By Ryann Gordon

SOLUTION TO THIS WEEK’S CROSSWORD PUZZLE
Art is forever changing and evolving. The recent trend that art is following stands in line with another, much larger trend in the world: technology. One of the ways in which artists manipulate their works with the help of technology falls in a field called circuitry, better understood by the intertwining of circuit-powered tech, like light and music, and handmade art. A handful of valued Dallas artists, before they take off to South by Southwest (SXSW) Festival in Austin, will preview their art (details at the end of the story). Aside from the numerous new age musicians who’ll be gracing the stage together for this exclusive event, there’s another, less expected artform that is sure to make this tour a one-of-akind experience. Behind the artists on stage, working with their music and other stage designs will be the live audio and visual works of local artist and DJ Evan Henry, a.k.a. CINEMA AV. His artwork, which is mostly comprised of analog designs, represents a post-ambient digital trend in modern art, giving the stage a liquid feel behind the artists performing. In the past, he’s worked with artists like photographer Lev Bourliot to enhance their artworks and display them in post-contemporary form. He took part in BOURLIOT x CINEMA late-January, where they displayed Bourliot’s black and white-themed photographs on stacked, old-school television sets that shook and shuffled with electric colors, creating an avant-garde setup that felt unlike anything from the art of the past.
NOT.TRAVIS
Yun Kim shares plans to create a collaborative optical illusion using lighting projections. Another circuitry and technology artist, Bathhouse + Llora, will have a Dallas stop on Friday, Feb 28 and at SXSW in Austin. This will not be the only opportunity to see some of the digital turns modern art has taken. Various Dallas artists have begun experimenting with circuitry in recent years, one of which can be seen electrifying the walls of Psychedelic Robot’s next leg, which kicks off mid-March. A longtime Dallas-native, Yun Kim has become well-known in the world of music and most certainly lighting design. His recent project is the makeup of what Psychedelic Robot has named “Illuminated Walls,” which is taking over Bivins Gallery at 300 Crescent Court, #100, for the third series of the gallery's pop-up museum. Using projection mapping to outline and expand on the current artists designs, including local Dallas favorite not.travis, Yun Kim will create a moving effect that will illuminate the walls of Bivins Gallery as the name suggests.

make you smarter. Children gain attention and working memory benefits when they are exposed to greenery, says a study led by Payam Dadvand of the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology in Barcelona, In addition, exposure to natural settings may be widely effective in reducing attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder symptoms in children. This applies to adults as well. Research has also shown that being around plants helps you concentrate better at home and at work. Charlie Hall, Ellison Chair in International Floriculture believes that spending time in gardens can improve attention span and memory performance by as much as 20 percent. A National Institute of Health study found that adults demonstrate significant cognitive gains after going on a nature walk. In addition, a Stanford University study found that walking in nature, rather than a concrete-oriented, urban environment, resulted
in decreased anxiety, rumination and negative affect, and produced cognitive benefits, such as increased working memory performance. Living landscapes help you heal faster. Multiple studies have discovered that plants in hospital recovery rooms or views of aesthetically-pleasing gardens help patients heal up to one day faster than those who are in more sterile or austere environments. Physicians are now prescribing time outdoors for some patients, according to recent reports. Park Rx America is a nonprofit with a mission to encourage physicians to prescribe doses of nature. All of these benefits reinforce the importance of maintaining our yards, parks and other community green spaces. Trees, shrubs, grass and flowering plants are integral to human health. Not only do they provide a place for kids and pets to play, they directly contribute to our mental and physical well-being. More information can be found by visiting turfmutt.com.

Other artists are currently working day and night to create a spectacle of allure that Yun Kim’s circuitry enhances. The optical illusion that his lighting designs add to paintings, murals, portraits, photographs, sculptures and other hand-crafted art-forms embraces technology and traditional art, entering the observer into a borderless exhibition with limitless capabilities. Prior Psychedelic Robot installations have included projections from another local artist Geoff Case, who designed the iconic Dallas Mavericks Skyline NBA jersey. Case has worked with lighting and circuitry in Dallas to create immersive art experiences that fuse projection mapping, holograms and other emerging technologies into traditional, static pieces of artwork, from buildings and murals to sculptures, stages and paintings. On Friday, Feb. 28 from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m., Bathhouse + Llora will be kicking off their van tour, “Fascinación Violenta.” Call 940448-0859 for the “secret” location. Admission is $7 to $10.
