DISTRIBUTED CURATION
JULY RESIDENCY PROGRAM AT 33 HAWLEY
This month, the A.P.E. curatorial team has invited core artists into mini-residencies in the Flex Space at 33 Hawley St, during which the space is made available for any kind of creative exploration, process, or development. Each core artist was also responsible for inviting one additional local artist to also have a mini-residency of their own at some point during the month. We asked core artists to consider other artists who may not have worked at A.P.E. before, and who, in their own considerations, would benefit from access to creative space. Through this model, we hope to begin to address some of our concerns around access and inclusivity, and bridge increased connections with local artists in order to widen our creative networks.
Residency Artists include:
Lauren Horn, Meredith Bove, Nick Verdi, Sha Harrell, Lailye Weidman, Aamari Green, Deboarah Goffe

AUTHOR by a canary torsi
At the Bodies in Motion Festival from Jan. 17-31 AUTHOR is a participatory video installation that invites each visitor to interact with the 15 performers through a text-based computer game. Forming a poetically mediated stream-of-conscious between visitors and the text and video recordings generated by the project’s 15 performers, visitors navigate their relationship to the performers' language and images on the topics of performing, representation and casting. Resulting in strangely on-point, absurd exchanges, or non-sensical random connections, the algorithm of the game invites the author to discover their own voice inside the machine, to construct their own meaning in "conversation" with the personal material of 15 performers.
