Gallery Simulations
The videos below give a facsimile of what my ‘motionpaintings’ might look like in a gallery or museum setting. If Ultra-Short Throw projectors are used, the work can be seen on a large scale and in more or less broad daylight (no doubt future advances in projection technologies will invite viewing in a totally lit space analogous to the gallery or museum environment).

“DeKooning Participatory Experiment-3 (NO FRAME)” Gallery Simulation continues my exploration of viewer interaction through Webcam and Max. M.o.s., 2023
SEE-SAW (Andersen & Max Patch – Ver 4 FINAL motionpainting explores aestehtic possibilities for enhanced viewer participation and ‘materiality’. This work is meant for continuous viewing and large screen projections combined and webcam with material elements – painting on clear acrylic, drawing, ArtRage iPad painting, with combined 3 dimensional forms. M.o.s., 2023.
SEE-SAW, Participatory Version (Gallery Simulation Segment). M.o.s., 2023. This motionpainting is meant for large scale projection and continuous viewing. SEE-SAW continues my explorations of ‘materiality’ & ‘participation’ (in this instance, with viewer(s) movement in the gallery or museum). Created with a combination of stillfframe artwork done in traditional manner with oil paints, ArtRage software and video recording, the projection needs to be fed by a computer with Millumin and Max patch. For more information, contact the artist.
OH COME ALL YE FAITHFUL 3D ver 1 (Gallery Simulation).mov. This motionpainting continues my explorations of ‘materiality’ and an expanded ‘frame’. For another ‘expanded’ 3D version please see video insert to the right. M.o.s. 2023.
OH COME ALL YE FAITHFUL – 3D EXPLODED Ver 2 (GALLERY SIMULATION SEGMENT). This gallery simulation reflects a new direction I’ve been exploring for some time. The desire to move painting into a spatial environment that allows for a more ‘sculptural’ approach to traditional art-making. M.o.s. 2023.
PAINTING IN MY STUDIO (A PENSIVE MAN, Ver 2) & NOTHING WITH NOTHING (IT DOES MATTER) motionpaintings. Meant for large screen projection and continuous viewing, these two works continue my explorations of ‘materiality’ and ‘stillness in motion’. Both works m.o.s., 2023.
MAXFEB 21, m.o.s., 2022. Motionpainting meant for large screen projection and continuous viewing.
JANUARY IN AUGUST (3 ITERATIONS), 2022. Although this simulation is m.o.s., two of the three works have audio. Note also that the middle motionpainting (originally titled “Je Vous Aime”) is an homage to Etienne-Jules Marey, c. 1880.
2 EYES (YELLOW ME RED) m.o.s. 2022 – Combined files, gallery simulation segment (work in progress).
Gallery simulation segment of 2 EYES (YELLOW ME), m.o.s., 2022. Meant for large screen projection and continuous viewing.
FEB 21 – Gallery simulation of work created in SD in 2010. Audio should be used as ambient sound or not at all.
LINDA AT THE COOP Ver 1 (on left) and LINDA AT THE COOP Ver 2 gallery simulations. To view individual motionpaintings, navigate to the “major motionpaintings” menu. M.o.s., 2022.

“She Championed…” motionpainting is meant for large screen projection and continuous viewing. Depending on size of projection, two ultra-short throw projectors may be necessary. Vimeo has audio. 2021.
John Serkin Portrait (Vizzie Gray Version). Meant for large screen projection in semi-darkened space or daylight if projection allows for deep blacks. Audio should very low level and used as ambient sound. 2021
From left to right: John Serkin Portrait (Pale Ver 2), John Serkin Portrait – Original, John Serkin Portrait (Vizzie Final), John Serkin Portrait (Yellow BK m.o.s.), John Serkin Portrait (Ver 1 – Face Layer). Note that the size for these 5 motionpaintings is variable (i.e., each can be viewed as large screen projections, or on appropriate tv monitors. For exhibition purposes, note that the “John Serkin Portrait (Pale Ver 2)” is created to incorporate a ‘live’ video feed from a Raspberry pi (or similar) camera aimed at the ‘room/viewer’ and integrated in the central square through the use of Millumin software.
John Serkin Portrait (Ver 8 Disparate – White BK). Meant for large screen projection in semi-darkened space or daylight if projection allows for deep blacks. Audio should very low level and used as ambient sound. 2021

From left to right: “Vis a Vis (Circles)”; “Vis a Vis (11) Stage 4”, “Vis a Vis (16)”, “Vis a Vis (11) Stage 11″. These motionpaintings are meant to be seen as a group in large format using Ultra Short Throw projection. Audio is an important part of these works and should be played at a low ambient level (audio in “Vis a Vis (Circles)” should be featured).
