Comments (0) BEST NEW ART BY A NEWCOMER - 2006

Steven Read the color channel Capsule

For the color channel, Steven Read lined up old television sets at even intervals on the floor of Capsule gallery. High up on the walls, Read mounted tabletop antennae, which gathered UHF waves and transmitted them to the television sets. Read wrote a software program to comprehend the signals and then convert them from television programs to ever-changing geometric compositions. The resulting images were made up of squares, rectangles and lines -- though sometimes Cops and other shows were visible underneath. Read's cleverness made the color channel the best debut by an emerging artist in Denver in memory.
