Project Description

Bar Tape 2

This is an example of the many videos/DVDS that run 24/7 at Freddy’s Bar in Brooklyn {https://freddysbar.com/}. They have run on screens at Freddy’s for over 20 years now. Their audio is not played, so that the environment of a Bar provides the auditory back-drop, be it ‘In House’ music & or conversation.

These are long stream of consciousness constructs, in which the TV is both medium and message. These are were i really think the TV is Dreaming, of all it has seen. From these long pieces i develop ideas for the shorter ones.
