LIGHT YEAR 59: “Fading into the New World” is an exploration of the spaces between our world and the digital. We live in a transitional mode, as real as the seasons, as epic as an epoch. Somewhere between “here and there,” transition seems to be the new standard. The place is between places.

This six-piece selection features work from the Leo Kuelbs Collection of video art and is culled from multiple projects spanning a several year period. Kitzinger Gabor and Bordos are both award-winning digital mapping artists based in Budapest, Eike Berg is Director of the Schafhof European Artists Residency in Germany, Jeremy Couillard instructs on AI at an NYC University, while Sarah Oh-Mock is another award winner from Berlin.

Musicians include Jarboe (Swans), Dutch DJ, Dennis Vos and Academy Award Winner, Johann Johannsson. The Mighty Kongbot team includes Domenico Barra, a new force in online digital arts and culture.
