Potter-Belmar Labs at Salon Mijangos


Saturday August 12, 2006
Salon Mijangos
1906 S. Flores, San Antonio TX
6-9pm

"Potter-Belmar Labs has already shredded the contemporary-videoart envelope beyond recognition, but the San Antonio duo will try to top their previous accolades ("blows away your expectations of new media" is oft-quoted) Saturday at Salon Mijangos with an improvised video-and-music performance narrated by the audience's collective (sub)conscious".

PBL played 2 sets Saturday night to full houses, albeit an intimate space.


We solicited & projected (on an overhead projector)* intertitles from the audience on which we then based the structure of each set.

It was a great challenge, forcing us to find new ways of connecting our materials together that we never would have thought of.

Audience members became engaged beyond the level passive observer, more committed due to the direct input, and never quite knowing when/if/how thier contribution might be used.

*note the second photo below; the intertitle is visible in the upper-left: "On a reluctant persute (sic) for closure"

Second Saturday in July 2006

SITE STUDY 0
Date: Saturday July 8, 2006 9pm-12am
Site: 1906 Complex, Loading Dock
Occasion: Second Saturday at Andy's Building


Potter-Belmar Labs' first performance in San Antonio, and first performance in almost exactly one year to the date; we set up in Andy Benavides' warehouse, aiming a projection of audio and video jazz up onto the rear-screen to be seen by the audience on their folding metal chairs in the parking lot. Our tech-station lies on the path between Jessica DeCuir's Mash-up record cover collages at Salon Mijangos, and the new CAM shows at Flight and 1906.

Site considerations included
audience seating and traffic flow
the social nature of the event (multiple receptions) and its impact on attention-span
