Once again, my blogging has been spotty at best this week. Vtape sort of ate my face what with the catalogue essay being due and now my sister is in town for the Spice Girls concert tonight (don’t pretend you’re not jealous) – since they cut the rest of their world tour, tonight’s show is the final one (ever), which is very exciting.
But continuing on the theme of “things I would go to if I were still in Vancouver,” here are some amazing pictures of my friend Jessie’s show at Catriona Jeffries: Kelly Wood and Monika Grzymala.

Kelly Wood has made those wavy, sketchy looking images that are actually photographic images of the binary code for digital song recordings from bands like the UJ3RK5 and the Nihilist Spasm Band.

Meanwhile, Hamburg-based Monika Grzymala has used seven kilometres of adhesive tape to make a site-specific installation that replicates the unexpected glitches and pixilation that occur in digital images.

They look really incredible in these photos and I wish I could see their tangible, three dimensional, threatening-to-fall-off-the-wall goodness.
