312 is an alternative video exhibition space housed in the small foyer of an apartment. Showcasing one channel video work on a television, 312 offers the visitor an intimate experience—a relaxing chair, a set of headphones (or speakers for two people) and video art. It’s homey, it’s small, and it’s for video. 312 Online is our computer desk extension of our homey space, allowing you to access video art from the comfort of your home, or work, or wherever you may be…
NOTE: No installations, no paintings, and no sculptures unless on one channel video. No bad attitudes either.

Other works in the show include:
• Sally or the Bubble Burst by Toni Dove, an interactive video installation using speech recognition and synthesis to allow visitors to interact with a virtual character based on the 1930s fan and bubble dancer, Sally Rand.
• Soft Cinema: Navigating the Database by Lev Manovich and Andreas Kratky, which features three database-driven films -- Mission to Earth (2003-2004), Texas (2002) and Absences (2004) -- that use software to create movies by selecting and editing media from a database.
• ScruTiny in the Great Round (1995), a CD-ROM by Tennessee Rice Dixon, a slow-moving and interactive collage about birth and marriage that uses sound, poetry and imagery of artifacts and symbols from cultures throughout history. Dixon's book that inspired the CD-ROM is included in the show.
• Medicinal Craft of Cephalopods, Recollections of a Somnambulist and A Short History of the Bezoar Stone, three hybrid works by media artist Paul Catanese made for the Game Boy Advance.

mnartists.org is pleased to announce the launch of access+ENGAGE, a biweekly arts e-journal featuring artwork, interviews, commentary, and events that will highlight innovative work from artists and organizations based throughout the state.
access+ENGAGE will provide arts enthusiasts a hand-picked selection of upcoming events from around the state, art by Minnesota luminaries and emerging artists alike, and insightful cultural commentary from both national and regionally-based critics, curators, fans and artists. Reflecting the diversity of artists registered on mnartists.org, the e-journal will feature compelling arts stories from all disciplines—visual arts, performing arts, literary arts, music, new media, design, and architecture.
In this way, access+ENGAGE will give an inviting overview of the fantastically rich Minnesota art world and will also serve as an entry point and guide for the full online experience of the “radical democracy” that is mnartists.org!
