DOUBLE VISION, a San Francisco based intermedia performance group, will be performing at Oscillate/Osculate, a monthly experimental art series at the Center for Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe. The group will be producing a night of ongoing performances including interactive dance, multiple live video projections, installations, and electronic music. Attendees can freely roam amongst the performers whose actions are at times subject to the rules of Conway’s cellular automata algorithm known as the “Game of Life.” The result is a high-energy, chaotic, and immersive multimedia happening. DOUBLE VISION will also be collaborating with local Santa Fe artists in a guerrilla media installation fun house.
