PUNCHCARD ECONOMY: 8 HOURS LABOUR

PERFORMANCE >>> 16 Jan 2025 10am - 7pm
LIVE STREAM @ https://www.youtube.com/@videosmithery/live

For the second time I will be performing a new version of my '8 Hours Labour' work in January as part of Que restera-t-il ? - an exhibition on material traces at Le Liv Art, Montreal, curated by Dounia Bouzidi and Joseph Rozenkopf. Once again, My contribution will simply be my 'work' - 8 hours of knitting on a brother punchcard machine, as an attempt to move focus away from the art object and towards the act of artistic labour.

Que restera-t-il ? is an exhibition that questions the temporality of creation, the appropriation of material and the traces left by artists. .

Fortuitously, the vernissage / opening of this show in takes place at the same time as the finnisage / closing of the previous exhibition of the work in Kunsthaus Graz, Austria, as part of 24/7 Work between meaning and imbalance. My performance in Montreal will be live streamed back to GRaz and displayed in the bar. Are they are getting an extra days work for free? I'm not sure, but I'm really pleased that the project can close in this manner.

https://www.facebook.com/events/1364927224177849

I've made a 1-minute video for the Minute Mapp event as part of Mapp Montreal. The site is the facade of the 'Million Tapis and Tuiles' store (now closed). My piece was shot in a minute, and is called '999,999'. I suspect it will stand out like a sore thumb but I'm proud of it - what it lacks in effort or finesse, it makes up for in serendipity and critique.

https://suoniperilpopolo.org/program/afrorack-ony-honeydrip-dj-unas-rob-feulner-sam-meech

Myself and Rob Feulner are presneting a new work - so new it aint finished! - at this music event featuring Bamanya Brian (Afrorack) - a Ugandan synth artist and inventor - it's worth checking out his Youtube channel for some very generous tutorials on creating synths using reclaimed materials.

Anyway, while Bamanya is doing his thing onstage you'll also be able to see STAIRCASE - a six-sceen analogue crt televsion installation on a six-step stage staircase. It will feature some iconic ups and downs from cinema and television, asceninding and descending the six screens. I'm programming it in Isadora right now!

This project is another good example of where collaboration takes you - it wasn't my idea, but I'm hopefully able to help shape it into something that makes it more than the sum of its parts, and we'll both learn a few tricks along the way.

WORKSHOP >>>
Feedback Fantômes; hybridité film/vidéo

Tue 15 & Thur 17, Tue 22 & Wed 23 Oct 2024 @ Videogrape, Montreal - $95 CAD

https://www.videographe.org/formation/feedback-fantomes-hybridite-film-video/

A very special and unusual workshop for halloween. Four evenings of spooky video with myself and video artist Guillaume Vallée. Together we will all attempt to conjure ghosts using a variety of moving image processes, from paint and scratch on film, to video feedback. Through visual incantations and exposures we will open the portal to chaos and unleash the spirit of video, before attempting to capture the phantoms on film!

Sadly this is SOLD OUT, however there is a waiting list, so if you are at all interested, get your name down on the off chance a space becomes open.

Introduction to Isadora – The Video Installation Toolbox

Sat 14 & Sun 15 Sept 2024 @ Videogrape, Montreal - $125 CAD

https://www.videographe.org/en/workshop/introduction-to-isadora-the-video-installation-toolbox/

I'm giving a two day beginners workshop for video artists who want to learn how to present their work as installations. This is ideal starter for anyone who is interested in working with video in a more flexible manner - exploring non linear navigation, incorporating randomness, real time effects, syncing video and screens, and basic projection mapping.

We will be using the media arts software Isadora - a really powerful toolkit which is thankfully very easy to get started with. It's must quicker to grasp than Touch Designer or using Brightsigns, but alsoextremely flexible. If you have an old mac mini lying around, you can give it a new lease of life as your video server! I used it most recently for presenting some of the works in SVP REmbobinez, including the Karaoke For ONe piece, which is still up and running.

The course includes a free 1 month isadora license. There are only 6 places I believe, so you'll need to sign up quick!

PUNCHCARD ECONOMY: 8 HOURS LABOUR
24 / 7: Work between meaning and imbalance

1st May 2024 > 19th January 2025 @ Kunsthauz Graz, Austria

PERFORMANCE >>> 14 JUNE >>> https://www.museum-joanneum.at/en/kunsthaus-graz/our-programme/calendar/event/sam-meech-1
LIVE STREAM @ https://www.youtube.com/@videosmithery/live

https://www.museum-joanneum.at/en/kunsthaus-graz/our-programme/exhibitions/event/24-7-2

I will be performing a new version of my '8 Hours Labour' work in June as part of an exibition on labour in Graz. Curated by Katia Huemer and cuocurated byt Martin Grabner, 24 / 7: Work between meaning and imbalance brings together many artists looking at our relationship to work and time.

The exhibition examines the often precarious aspects of artistic and cultural work, posing questions about the blurring of boundaries between letting oneself be exploited and self-realisation.

My contribution will simply be my 'work' - 8 hours of knitting on a brother punchcard machine, as an attempt to move focus away from the art object and towards the act of artistic labour. I say 'simply', but in reality this decision has dramatically inscreased the amount of admin and planning involved, so once again I seem to have fashioned a rod for my own back. Why is there always so much work invovled just to get to the work? Still, I'm looking forward to it.

The (insane) list of exhibiting artists includes:
Maja Bajević, Julien Berthier, Louisa Clement, Manuel Correa & Marina Otero Verzier, Jeremy Deller, Antje Ehmann & Harun Farocki & Eva Stotz, Aldo Giannotti, Liam Gillick, Lisa Großkopf, Andreas Gursky, Michael Hieslmair & Michael Zinganel, Tehching Hsieh, Johanna Kandl, Peter Kogler, Luiza Margan, Pia Mayrwöger, Sam Meech, Michail Michailov, Elisa Giardina Papa, Nika Radić, Martha Rosler, Sebastian Schmieg & Silvio Lorusso, Christoph Schwarz, Selma Selman, Santiago Sierra, Lia Sudermann & Simon Nagy, KURS (Miloš Miletić, Mirjana Radovanović), Oliver Walker

EXHIBITION >>>
SVP REMOBOBINEZ
1st > 31st March @ various venues (Montreal, Québec City, Val David)

http://bit.ly/svprembobinez

Me and video artist Rob Feulner have created an exibition of video artworks in video stores across Québec. During the month of march (yeha I know I'm late), you can discover 12 different artworks in 6 different venues, on formats ranging from vhs, dvd, and interactive digital installation. I'm really proud of the range of stuff on show, and the way we have represented existing artworks and also created new pieces in response to the sites.

But the real stars of the show are the stores themselves - homes to physical media for sale or for rent, active archives and spaces for community. Initially the plan was to install our existing work in the last club video in Montreal, Le Cinoche, but their decision to close last November forced me to look for a plan B and C. In the end Le Cinoche stayed open as a selling store and the project had evolvd to look at video stores as an ecology. For me these are incredible installations in their own right, and a perfect space for video art beyond the gallery. The owners have been incredibly patient with me and my ideas.

Working with Rob again has been great - that push and pull between our overlapping sensibilities and love for video. We collaborated together on a couple of new pieces including the AMAZING Monster Movies vhs, which you can find in Video Centre Ville, QC and Horreur Fanatik, Montreal. We've also replayed some of our greatest hits, including Chroma Culture, The Burning Desire for a Dollar Bill, and Video art for Conditional Mailse, Oh, and a new version of Groundhog Day that uses a random dvd structure.

The project is supported by the Conseil des Arts et Lettres de Québec 'Présentation d’œuvres dans l’espace public et dans des lieux atypiques' program

TEN THOUSAND YEARS (2023)

26 FÉVRIER 17h 30 @ CINÉMATHEQUE QUEBECOIS

https://rendez-vous.quebeccinema.ca/films/ten-thousand-years

My latest film 'TEN THOUSAND YEARS' is showing at a festival 'Rendez-Vous Québec Cinéma' - in the experimental strand. It is showing as part of a program of shorts entitled with a new french translation by Marilyn Farley.

The film was written by poet Ross Sutherland, originally created as part of a series of short fiction set in the world of the film 'Groundhog Day', which imagine how (still) life in Punxatawny would be experienced had the central character remained trapped in his time loop long after the events of the original film. I have appropriated elements of the original film and incoporated real-time video feedback in order to give the work its gentle underlying vibration. The sound has also been design by Raz Ullah, who worked with me on the absurd 2019 'Groundhog Day Remix'

FABRICATIONS (2023)
>>> VIDEO NOW ONLINE >>>

You can now watch ‘FABRICATIONS’ online at The Developer - an organisation that supports critical discuassion around sustainable urban development. ‘FABRICATIONS’ is a 14 minute video version of my article of the same name, which looks at the displacement of long-standing South Asian textile firms from Crusader Mill, Manchester, by developers Capital and Centric. The film also talks about and my knitting work in response to the events, and questions what impact (if any) they made, or purpose they might still serve.

The film was originally presented at the Textile and place conference 2023 in Manchester in October 2023. as part of the British Textile Biennial.

TICKETS >>> (FREE) >>> https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/noahs-ark-film-screening-tickets-731813242107

Manchester Poetry Library are presenting my 2010 film NOAH'S ARK as their FIRST EVER FILM SCREENING in partnership with the North West Film Archive at Manchester Metropolitan University. I really wish I could be there in person, but sadly there is no ark to carry me over the water in time. However, I am so proud that the film is being shown again, and especially in this context.

When I was working on the film in 2010 with Nathan Jones, I felt his role as a poet might help to interpret and even clarify the obscure collage structure of the film. Instead he translated it, or mistranlated it, adding additional narratives on top, unlocking further associations with the images onscreen, and provoking intuition and gut feeling through his incantations. The film became more complex and far less literal. The themes became deeper, both more personal (who is 'Morwenna'?) and more universal ("the fruit thrown away in favour of the root"). As we toured the film (along with musician Carl Brown whoi wrote the score),Nathan would often change the words, and so I began to realise the text itself wasn't necessarily sacred. Hopefully one day we can make a new interpretation.

Tuesday 17th Oct, 12:10pm >>> ‘Panel 2: Regenerative Acts’ >>> Manchester School of Art, Benzie Building
Part of the British Textile Biennial

TICKETS >>> https://www.textileandplace.co.uk/

I’m talking (zooming) at the Textile and place conference 2023 in Manchester as part of ‘Panel 2: Regenerative Acts’, (12:10pm GMT) alongside Naitiemu Nyanjom (@naitiemu) and Ifeoma Anyaeji. We will each be sharing a video presentation, followed by a Q&A.

I’ll be sharing ‘FABRICATIONS’ - a 14 minute video version of my article of the same name, which looks at the displacement of long-standing South Asian textile firms from Crusader Mill, Manchester, by developers Capital and Centric. I’ll also talk about and my knitting work in response to the events, and questioning what impact (if any) they made, or purpose they might still serve.

Why am I still talking about this? Well, history is easily forgotten (or erased). I also think MCR needs to properly engage with it’s textile production communities to support them and help them develop sustainably. First part of that means acknowledging their contribution to industrial heritage and understanding the various pressures they face.

The event is part of the British Textile Biennial taking place between 29 Sept and 29 Oct https://britishtextilebiennial.co.uk.

So, Knitting nerds, urban geographers, and those interested in the history of Manchester - you should check it out! You can attend the conference in person.

WORKSHOP >>>
ATELIER de POÈSIE de la LUNE
13 - 16h (drop in) - 1st October, 2023
Quai 5160 - Maison de la culture de Verdun

I am running a super simple drop-in poetry workshop in which I invite people to write a short metaphor about the moon, as part of my project "La Lune est..". Participants will write a small poetic lunar metaphor using stratgies of chance and reflection, which will then be contributed to the larger projet, an interactive projection installation of the moon, in December 2023, at Quai 51600 in Verdun.

The poetic metaphors use a simple formula - "The moon is..." - followed by an adjective and a noun. These are most run to develop by chance, using words taken from a text, a song, or a book, or an overheard conversation. By choosing things at random, creating our poems through chance, we acoid the trap of trying to write something that we assume to sound like a lunar metaphor, and hopefully stumble into new connections and profoundly absurd combinations that spark our imagination. We want to avoid over thinking, and then let the metaphor itself inspire possible next steps.

la lune est un révolution tranquille (the moon is a quiet revoultion)

la lune est un veteran polyphonique (the moon is a polyphonic veteran)

The project is inspired by the workshops of Ross Sutherland, as discussed in his Imaginary Advice podcaste episode "Re: The Moon". Indeed, this workshop is my attempt to recreate the processes he decribes, and to use them as a starting point for developing the final insteractive installation in december 2023.

One of my short films is csreening as part of Kerry Baldry's long running ONE MINUTE project. I've been lucky enough to have several of my films join this series over the years, and in truth I can't actually remember which one is in the ninth edition, however there's a fair chance it will be a knitted animation, or a collaboration with my best buddy Chris Paul Daniels. In short, it kind of doesnt matter - the programmes as a whole are always fantastic - full of experimentation and humour and each film is mercifully short.

PREMIERE OF NEW FILM >>>
TEN THOUSAND YEARS
BRAZIERS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL >>> Sunday 3rd September 2023 as part of 'Radical Instincts'

I've finally completed a new film - another version of Groundhog Day - which will have its premiere at the upcoming Braziers International Film Festval. The film is a collaboration with Ross Sutherland of the Imaginary Advice podcast, and based on his own obsession with rewatching the 1993 film Groundhog Day. Additional sound design has been magicked up by my good friend Raz Ullah, with whom I have collaborated on a previous GHD project, the 2019 'remix'.

Ten Thousand Years is a quasi-sequel to Groundhog Day, supposing that the weatherman protagonist Phil Connors never left the town of Punxatawny, and instead remained trapped in his loopy existence for millenia. At this point he has chosen "a single final path" - to do nothing. The story is written and narrated by Ross Sutherland, and manages to combine profound philosophical questions with crude jokes about dog penises. The film is entirely composed of extremely short sequences from the original film, that have been bathed in a soup of video feedback.

I'm really pleased to be showing at Braziers IFF - it is a festival organised and programmed by other artist film makers who I hugely respect, such as Nick Jordan, Chris Paul Daniels and Dave Griffiths. The programme as a whole looks terriffic, especially the film focus on the work of Julia Parks. I sadly wont be there in person, but will attempt to be present via some kind of transcendental meditation.

UPCOMING ARTICLE PUBLICATION >>>
A MECCA OF INDUSTRY
THEN THERE WAS US MAGAZINE

LAUNCH PARTY >>> 24th August 2023 in Hackney, London (location tbc)

I've rewritten and reframed my 'Fabrications' article to create a much more accessible piece focused on the experiences and history of displaced South Asian textile workers in Manchester, and less about my own knitting work. I'm super pleased with it, and grateful for the encouragement of editor Jonathan Tomlinson. It is also accompanied by some excellent new photographs of Unique Knitwear, taken by James Starkey, who also used to have a studio at Crusader Mill.

The fourth issue of Then There Was Us is all about industry, exploring its impact on fashion, art, music, and culture. For this issue we have sourced innovative and thought-provoking stories that delve into the ways in which industry has shaped and continues to shape these creative spheres. We wanted this issue to examine the interplay between industry and creativity in a unique and insightful manner.

My short film Social Fabric (2019) will be exhibited as part of a group of artworks addresses the theme of eviction and gentrification. Social Fabric documents the displacement of South Asian knitwear businesses from Crusader Mill (Manchester) in 2017 by developers Capital & Centric. It focuses on Unique Knitwear, run by Ayub Khan and highlights the fact that the south Asian textile community have occupied these buildings in Manchester for decade, essentially saving them from deriliction.

Exhibition deatils here: https://www.videocity.org/manchester-2023

My short animation about the Crusader Mill fire, Trouble at the Mill (2019) will be exhibited as part of a series of socially-engaged artists works curated by Masters students at Manchester School of Art. The exhibition is being prioduced in partnership with Videocity, an international public art project founded in 2013 in Basel, Switzerland by Dr Andrea Domesle that connects video art with audiences in public spaces around the world.

My work was chosen by curator Nia Palmer, who was interested in the themes of local industry and gentrification - something touched on in more detail in my article 'Fabrications'. Though I have screened the film before at festivals, for this exhibition I made a new looping version of the work especially for the installation.

The video is also accompanied by a previously unseen knitted work - a recreation of the signage of Dream Knitwear - the factory where the fire occured. Both works attempt to mark the displacement of South Asian working class textile communities in Manchester by property developers Capital & Centric. I hope that people will enjoy the works and also let the developers know what they think!

curated by Marijn Bril

Including work by Art Goss / Alina Lupu / Sam Meech / Adrian Melis / Mario Santamaría / Tytus Szabelski-Różniak / Pilvi Takala / Total Refusal / 996.ICU

I have a new version of a previous work in a show about WORK. Out of Office presents a collection of artistic responses that reveal, rethink and reject the constant drive towards exploitative productivity. My contribution is a reworking of my '8 Hours Labour' banner, this time visualising data about over-work collected from people working in academia.

The show and the work come at a weird time for me, since I quit my job teaching at Concordia just before Christmas. Consequently I spent the new year clearing out my office, and knitting a banner which expressed some of the reasons why I chose to leave. I took care to document both acts - leaving the office and the production of the banner - via a cctv system. The final videos appear in the exhibition alongside the knitting object, The final work is titled '8 Hours Labour - Limited Term Appointment' in reference to the precarious full-time contract under which I was working.

An important article bringing together several years of research and craftivism around the knitting factories of manchester and their displacement by developers Capital & Centric. It opens up some hugely important issues around narrative, power, and the erasure of marginalised communities from the industrial heritage of the city. I've written this article not for my job, but because these issues needed articulating in a more substantial way than a twitter thread. Anyone who follows me will appreciate that this is something I care about deeply. My first and most likely my last published journal article!
