n121923454515717_5410.jpgfree103point9 is pleased to present AIRtime@Devotion :: July 2-August 16, 2010 :: Devotion Gallery, 54 Maujer Street, Williamsburg, NY.

Works: Radio Silence by Zach Poff opens at 6:00 p.m. on July 2; Bike Box by Sabine Gruffat & Bill Brown opens at 6:00 p.m. on July 16; and Noospherium by Brett Baloghby opens at 6:00 p.m. on July 30.

The series consists of solo exhibitions by Zach Poff (Radio Silence), Sabine Gruffat & Bill Brown (Bike Box), and Brett Balogh (Noospherium), which span the contemporary genre of Transmission Art. The Transmission Art genre is informed by works which employ an intentional use of space — often the airwaves — and manifests in participatory live art or time-based art, including radio, video, light, installation, and performance.

Radio Silence explores the silent moments of talk-radio, combining eight AM broadcasts into a meta-conversation based on the negative spaces between words: Pauses are treated as paradoxical opportunities to probe the neighboring airwaves in search of an expanded form of conversation. Eight wire-frame radio sculptures are arranged in a circle, empty except for their speakers. Each radio corresponds to a different local AM station which is being monitored by custom software. One at a time, each radio speaks while the others play a chorus of hissing residue between words. When the speaking radio shares a simultaneous moment of silence with one of its neighbors, the conversation silently shifts to that other radio before the next word begins. Over time, Radio Silence surveys the spectrum of viewpoints currently on the air, weaving them together through the intersections of a shared linguistic device.
