three times a day you may see us
                   
through van gogh's starry night palette.

                   
other times
                   
a dining room
                   
a cat
                   
or a book.

                   
every three minutes
                   
another look.



NOMADS is pleased to announce the launch of still-life, a new web project by
John Hudak created for our on-line Project Room.

In still-life, Hudak points a black and white webcam at his dining room
table capturing a still image every three minutes which is then colorized
utilizing van gogh's starry night palette.  Each individual image is further
converted to audio, creating a unique soundtrack which is updated every time
a new still-life is transmitted. Playing-off the notion of a webcam as a
surveillance or voyeuristic device, Hudak instead creates a painterly
portrait of his life and surroundings.
                   

Hudak is a sound artist whose work has been presented on numerous cds and in
live performances. He has also created a number of web-based works including
three projects for turbulence (http://www.turbulence.org).

still-life requires the QuickTime 4.0 plug-in.
