I am investigation abstraction and color relationships on my phone as the COVID 19 pandemic makes access to studio time tricky or fraught. These glitch variations are published via Instagram, with swipe interaction filling a device's screen.

During this 2021 phase of the pandemic I take at least a part of each day to engage in studio practice, gliching these "twists" into being. They synthesize and apply the rules of the "golden section" to visual material.

Bell Labs Mosh (2018), total running time 05:12. Part of a video series that examines the early information age, this industrial film was produced at Bell Labs and represents early experiments in rendering human speech and the "Poem Fields" computer animation work of Stan Vanderbeek and Kenneth Knowlton. Many of the inventions predicted within this video area a reality and commonplace, as accessible as our mobile phone. The original industrial film was made available under Creative Commons license, at archive.org. This data-moshing work was created while in residence at Signal Culture, Owego, NY. 

Installed in the Electronic Gallery, Salisbury University, July 16 - October 25, 2018.

Light Works (2018) – 34:07 loop, silent
 
Analog video and sound synthesis both use voltage interactions to evolve dynamic patterns, whether finally reproduced as video or sound. In the Light Works vivid hues and patterns emerged as oscillations interacted in an LZX Visual Cortex video synthesis module. The artist was there to coax and capture these serendipitous interactions of form and chroma.

Installed in the Electronic Gallery, Salisbury University, July 16 - October 25, 2018.

36 television remote controls dipping in chocolate, included in Voltage is Signal: Analog Video Works by Timothy Nohe,  Kohl Gallery, Washington College, November 9 - December 15, 2017, and, the Electronic Gallery at SalisburyUniversity, July 16 - October 25, 2018.

Light Well for James Turrell (2017), employed analog video and sound synthesis to evolve in real-time dynamic and shifting sound and light patterns that immersed a room in vivid hues. Four analog CRT tv monitors screened opening and closing concentric circles of deeply saturated color. Installed at the Kohl Gallery at Washington College with four matched CRTs, November 9 - December 15, 2017.

Entr’acte-Interact (2017), interactive HD video synthesis system triggered by audience members improvising with a microphone and two infrared sensors that triggered a drum machine.  The installation featured a drum machine, animation system and stereo speakers. Installed at the Kohl Gallery, Washington College, November 9 - December 15, 2017.

Electron Drawing – Visual Music was installed at Light City as a public art commission on the Art Walk. The piece employed analog modular synthesis sound which simultaneously produced live vector graphic video that was captured by a HD camera fed directly to a 12’ by 9’ LED jumbotron wall. Audience members shaped the sound and the drawings through two motion infrared motion sensors, and these were inset into two custom lasercut boxes produced by the artist.

Matter, Energy, Human (repertory version), Deep Vision Dance Company, Nicole A. Martinell, director and choreographer. Commissioned original 40 and 20 minute dance score composed by Timothy Nohe, scored for friction percussion, boy soprano, analog and wavetable synthesizers, e-bow guitar, and samples. Performers - Timothy Nohe: analog and digital synthesizers, sample sequencing, shortwave, ebow guitar; Shelly Purdy: friction percussion; Ruskin Nohe-Moren, boy soprano.

Analog video synthesis and found footage digitally composited with Rutt/Etra Video Synthesizer analog raster manipulation, and Paik/Abe Wobbulator transformations. Video produced while in residence at Signal Culture, Owego, NY.
