Wirefull Flags: Flags have been used for thousands of years to communicate without words. They can be used to show unity or can express independence and individuality. More recently, electrical wiring has become important for non-verbal communication. Now wires form a network that spans the globe and unifies while allowing individual expression and exploration. This summer, LoVid is presenting a series of Wirefull Interventions, where people have an opportunity to interact with the physical substance of electronic communication, wires. For Wirefull Flags (June 14, 2008 in Hudson, NY), audience will have an opportunity to create their own flags, which they will hang from wires that connect to one of LoVid's sound and video producing instruments. The audience will hold these wires to fly their flags and will simultaneously contribute their individual bodies' electrical signals into a collaborative creation of sound and video.
