THE TREACHERY OF SANCTUARY
by Chris Milk
Herbst Pavilion
Experimental filmmaker Chris Milk was the mastermind behind the installation Summer
into Dust, AKA Arcade Fire’s epic ball drop at Coachella last year, as well as their
groundbreaking interactive music video for “Wilderness Downtown” (developed with
fellow Creator Aaron Koblin). Milk’s latest project, The Treachery of Sanctuary, is a
Creators Project-produced, large-scale interactive triptych that makes its debut in San
Francisco. Viewers power and control the installation with the help of motion-sensing
Kinects, making their way through three transformative experiences of flight.
PROCESS 16 (SOFTWARE 3)
by Casey Reas
Herbst Pavilion
Generative artist Casey Reas uses custom-made software to create beautiful imagery
through code, working primarily with Processing, the open source programming language
he helped create. Following in the tradition of artists like Sol LeWitt, Reas’ projects set up
a series of logical rules, or processes, for the software to follow. The result is a series of
fluid, organic, expressionistic forms that emerge from the machine-made technique. The
imagery evokes transformation and visualizes systems in motion and at rest.
