NYC Conflux Festival

I’ll be in NYC from September 16th through the 23rd for the awesome http://confluxfestival.org/ . Please come out and participate, at least for my stuff. I’ll be doing two projects and a lecture for the festival at NYU’s art department @ 34 Stuyvesant Street 10003.

1) September 19th 2:00 – 2:30 – Lecture “I Get Around” – Marc Horowitz will discuss three of his travel-based projects. The National Dinner Tour, The Signature Series, and Google Maps Road Trip.

2) September 19th (right after the lecture) 2:30 – 3:45 – Google Maps Road Trip NYC – Peter Baldes and Marc Horowitz will perform a live virtual trip of NYC, in the vain of their recent cross-county Google Maps Road Trip project. They will take suggestions from the audience on what to visit and do on this journey. They will utilize google maps to navigate around, ustream.tv to broadcast the event live on the internet, youtube to see various NYC videos, and flickr to explore still images of the city.

2) September 18th 12:00pm – 6:00pm (at noon gather at Rosenberg gallery and we’ll leave from there) – NYCommercial – Marc Horowitz will lead a workshop that focuses on making a commercial for New York City. Marc and the group (you) will begin in the morning by brainstorming various ideas for the best commercial for NYC. The group will then shoot the commercial; later that day, edit it, and finally post it to several video sites and the conflux website.
