Phillip Stearns, Pixel Form

An in-studio performance and interview with Phillip Stearns aka Pixel Form, a practitioner of sonic and visual arts; music composer and performer; electronics sculptor and installation artist. Through the medium of networked systems, his work explores the horizons of information, politics, noise, control, proximity, subversion, corruption, interconnectedness and interrelatedness. Central to his practice as a visual artist and a performer are the use of custom electronics, hand-craft, hardware hacking, media technologies, and iterative processes marked by a judicial use of materials, restraint, simplicity, a careful balance between conceptual depth and playfulness.
