A collaboration with Alex Vessels for the Big Screens class at ITP. Presented at the IAC building's 120 foot video wall on Friday December 3rd, 2010.
Replica is a performance using live image processing to explore how the awareness of time affects the perception of self-image. Patterns unfold creating a dialogue between the performer and her representation, bringing the contrast of control and authenticity into question.

What if, in the dead of a winter, a seesaw could take you to summer?
A blustering winter landscape is accompanied by a seesaw in the center of the room. When two individuals start teetering back and forth, they control a wave of summertime imagery that soars and stretches across the wall. This is surreal therapy for those of us suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder.
The interaction is controlled by a wireless accelerometer…
Gastronomica is an exploration of the visual and sensory power of food that is abstracted, magnified and layered. See nismazaman.com/itp/?p=445 for more information about the video.
This video project was created by Minette Mangahas and Nisma Zaman for the Big Screens event at the IAC. See the channel description for more info: http://vimeo.com/channels/itpbigscreens2010. Nisma edited this video.
This project was developed for and presented at the ITP Big Screens 2010 event @ the IAC Video Wall in Chelsea, NY.
The aspect ratio of the IAC wall is 10.625:1, which is not very conducive to the web. This video represents the middle third of that screen.
Evaluating the state of each of the eight neighbors of the center pixel in a nine-square grid for every one of the 8,160 x 768 pixels on the wall of the IAC, algorithms are employed to generate…
Meantime is a real-time clock for the web.
Our daily use of the web consists of a call / response model that makes the web seem relatively stable and even a bit static. However, new content is dumped on at such a remarkable rate that it might be more useful to think of the web as a real-time stream.
To put this into context: 100 years of video was uploaded to YouTube today. 7309 edits were made to Wikipedia in the last hour. 4,459 photos were uploaded…
A multimedia (re)telling of imaginings and recollections in a span of a few minutes. Two young Filipino migrant women. Two ports and destinations yet a single longing for home. As their origins are unraveled and dislocations made apparent, their decision to leave is presented as not uncomplicated and their future temporal journeys and meanderings to find home foreshadowed.

As Rube Goldberg showed us in his now notorious cartoons depicting complex devices performing the simplest of tasks in the most roundabout ways, precision, timing, and creativity are tantamount to making such a machine functional and enjoyable. Invoking a popular physics engine, Boom Shakalaka creates a real time world with real time physics that portrays obstacles faced in the real world.
Werthein and Aston envisioned a world in which spectators…
This year we had 12 projects in the show (itp.nyu.edu/bigscreens2010/), which took place at the IAC building in New York City. Stay tuned for the remainder of the videos, which will probably be uploaded before the end of this month. We are grateful to Dan Shiffman, who teaches the class, and to Scott Gantkin at the IAC. We are also very thankful to Todd Sheridan for shooting on the mobile camera, and to the 6 volunteers

We are also very thankful to Todd Sheridan for shooting on the mobile camera, and to the 6 volunteers who manned the three cameras on tripods: Luis Violante, Gabriela Gutiérrez, Geetha Pedapati, Antonius Wiriadjaja, Katherine Keane, and Spike McCue.
Just think about it… What if you were trapped under something heavy and the mouse was out of your reach? Scary, right? That's exactly why we have these keyboard shortcuts so you can still use Vimeo until the help arrives.
