During my time in Stony Brook for f(Glitch) I’ll also be curating another BYOB event, taking place on March 4th!
You are invited to join us for the first Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB) at Stony Brook University. Taking part is easy: just bring your beamer (digital projector) and something to be screened! BYOB is a series of one-night exhibitions where artists are invited to bring their own beamers and explore the medium of projection by creating a collaborative happening of moving light, sound and performance. On March 4th from 20:00 until 23:00 we will fill Union Ballroom and University Cafe at Stony Brook University with artists, each of them armed with their own beamer.
The simple terms and guidelines:
The University will have a limited amount of beamers that can be booked on the night. Please get in contact if you need one. These will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
The full lineup for Bring Your Own Beamer Birmingham 2013 has just been announced. This year sees some old favourites return as well as lots of new faces from across the UK. Details below:

Revolution 33 // Bring Your Own Beamer
Vivid Projects’ acclaimed 33 REVOLUTIONS programme concludes this winter with Bring Your Own Beamer..
Armed with projectors, artists are invited to beam responses to Vivid Projects’ eight-month opening season, 33 REVOLUTIONS, onto the walls of the space.
Launched in February 2013, 33 REVOLUTIONS asks the question, can art and popular culture act as a catalyst for social change? The programme has taken audiences on a journey through film, print, performance and song, celebrating personal acts of protest and resistance from the anti-institutional spirit of 1960s-70s Britain right up to the simmering Arab Spring and Occupy!
Thought provoking encounters between new works and archive from 1950s to the present have addressed ways in which filmmakers and artists from a diverse range of cultural situations and societies have protested. For details on the full programme visit: www.vividprojects.org.uk.
You can bring your own beamer too – if you would like to make a response to 33 Revolutions and you have a projector, please fill in the form below.
Deadline is Tuesday 29th October at 23:59. If you’re successful we’ll let you know soon after the deadline!
For further information about taking part please email byobbirmingham@gmail.com or contact us on Facebook.

On Monday 22nd July I’ll be off to London to take part in a rather special edition of Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB), which sees the usual barrage of artists project against a backdrop of music from Mark Ronson and others!
This edition of BYOB will feature 28 visual artists (myself included) and will run from 7pm-11pm at a venue somewhere in East London. It’s invite-only, but as with all Boiler Room shows it’ll be streamed live, so tune in!
A big thanks to Lawrence Lek for putting together BYOB London 2013. There was a great selection of works, ranging from projection-mapping, generative art and even artware.

I had on show a load of work, some of which you can now view on my YouTub Channel. My horse remix of Rihanna also made an appearance.
I’ll be appearing at BYOB London 2013 this Sunday, 10th March. The event kicks off at 6pm at The White Building (how appropriate), 7 Queen’s Yard, London E9 5EN and goes on until 9pm.
I’ll be showing, amongst other things, some of the gifs from New Everything. More details about other participating artists is available on the website or Facebook event page
