zoom_zzee2 Microtheater video collaboration with Lovid

zoom_zzee2 Microtheater

 

zoom_zee2 is a video collaboration performed over Instagram with the analog video magicians Lovid. The performance includes a live micro theater (microtheater) of native bees of California and some discussion about the bee's anatomy and distributions. This microtheater also includes a little music to go along with the show and is part of the Begonia Society exploration in tracking species during climate change. If we know what species are around us perhaps we will know when they are missing?

 Lovid is the art duo of Tali Hinkis and Kyle Lapidus. LoVid explores translation and decay of natural, electrical, and biological systems. Since 2001, LoVid produces works that combine hand-made and machine produced craft, DIY electro-engineering, textile, video, and noise. www.lovid.org

At the Cheadle Center for Biodiversity and Ecological Restoration  LoVid researched ecological processes and restorative practices. Images and data collected from their time here are resulting in many outcomes, including textile works depicting images of restored wetlands.
