It's not the sound but the tones and light of an audio cassette that makes up this painting or light object (at night). Seeing, hearing at once.

Prof. Pocock with 3 students - Axel Heide, Oliver Kauselmann, Thorsten Kloepfer - as well as Gregor Stehle, developed the concept for Unmovie.net.

Its idea is an incessent stream of video clips culled from the net. It is therefore a documentary about cyberspace, but not quite, as the clips are selected and assembled in an endless stream by synthespians and online user dialogue on its stage. Both the Unmovie Stage and Stream have been playing 24-hours-a-day online since 10.11.2002.

Unmovie in various installation forms has been included in 15 exhibitions, 6 festtivals in 12 countries on 4 continents since it went online including ZKM Karlsruhe, Kiasma Helsinki, Time-Based Arts Hull UK, Banff Center Canada, ICC Tokyo, DEAF Rotterdam.

The overwhelming image in the minds of the students was photographic. Of course objects work well installed alongside photoworks. Themes spanned process art ideas - many of the photos too small to see here embody works constructed in and deconstructing natural spaces.

The semester came to a pre-mature end as the workspace allotted was double booked. The exhibition therefore and unfortunately never got finished. Maybe it's good that a semester concerning process got cut
short and remained itself in process.

Process art is never done. Perhaps its purpose it to remain expectant and so do we.

Class Pocock Julia Karst Altered Landscapes 2005

2005-01-12T13:48:00.000+01:00

The images of Julia Karst translate online quite well. I have taken the liberty to feature a few color images removed from their series. Each image interjects a 'fake' or unnatural color and form onto the Black Forest winter landscape. Romantic, painterly, the light is remarkable, especially as she used a pocket digital camera.
The project developed from her attention to one tree last semester which she saw and with white lime painted up with an ornamental grammar reminiscent of aboriginal art and costume. This semester she worked with objects that removed themselves from the surface of things, and began to inhabit the landscape. They do not operate with the cleverness so often apparent in photo 'land' art. Julia Karst manages to avoid the monumentalism of that genre, as practised by Andy Goldsworthy, and simply puncuate in a chromoluminist manner, her landscapes.

Julia Karst produced this project (3 scenes, 24 images) one day a week for one semester (14 weeks) in photography. Good work.

From 2004, white lime (harmless) tree painting.

News Article

That's me in the center wearing a checkered studio shirt. The Canadian Ambassador is to the right of me along with Dean Faryad of the Fine Art Faculty University of Kabul. Surrounding us are the workshops students. On the table to the left our media workstation, to the right, and the table on which the photographer is standing our object-making work area.

June 2004 with a grant from External Affairs Canada, Prof. Pocock traveled to the University of Kabul, Afghanistan, where he gave a media and art workshop "Landscape and Memory" with male and female students. He was also happy to be able to donate his S-VHS video camera, DV video camera, digital photography camera, software and books. The Apple G4 powerbook donated by the Center for Art and Media (ZKM) Karlsruhe Germany, he was able to install with a Farci (Persian) Wiki Content Management System, thanks to open source software!

Several quirky video works: a DJ turntable, motion-sensing surveillance cam time-image (center), a text-based sms video (back-right), a metronome/performance video object (right), an almost schizoid ecology-as-kitsch video perception piece (left), a cool fridge with PC painting digital performance mtv spoof installation. And then other time-based works including a thigh bone working clock adaptation, a surface-magnifying sliding lens painting, a wacky time-machine model, a real-time, mark-making work registered on a window and recorded in photo-images, an artificial light and plastic landscape distributed work and a bass-beat video of a speaker integrated into a genuine imitiation wood-grain world of club culture, dotted with some small works and a large inhabitable and inhabited painting, executed while the student lived in it on a rooftop over time...

important to the collective classroom construction.

A glimpse at the second space containing semester projects including a black and white text and image slide show on paper roll, a neon window work (behind spectator), a canvas hut painted inside and out while inhabited by the student on a rooftop (video of the performance inside), a time machine, and other works not clearly in this view.

Art Faculty Wiki Web

2003-08-23T04:12:00.000+02:00

With Axel Heide we developed a very early wiki - a python-based Zope portal. such a portal allows instant and open online text and image editing. empowering users, or 'prosumers.' in 1999, this with a flash frontend based on mini movie generating algorithm colored and designed by metadata, a streaming tv station, a chat room wehere there is always someone (a chatbot based on bob dylan) and several other features make it an early and now sadly crashed development site. it crashed on 2002 due to lack of funds.

And some other web projects, game-cinema hybrid attempts by students in the class as the Wiki Web was being developed.

For this last work 'About Hearing' Daniel Cotellesi won the Top European Student Producer Award in 1999.
