Sponsored work 2000   Love & Loss: American Portrait and Mourning Miniatures   Digitizing the Miniature: Simulating Intimacy through Technology   EXHIBIT Yale University Art Gallery, October 3 - December 30, 2000   Portrait and mourning miniatures present a challenge to curators who want to convey the highly personal import of these small objects in the impersonal setting of a museum. To make them more accessible, Carol Scully, director of the Digital Media Center for the Arts, produced five media components in collaboration with Robin Jaffee Frank, curator of the exhibition "Love and Loss". Using digital editing techniques to manipulate digital photographs created by GIST, Inc., four videos allow the viewer to see these tiny keepsakes in remarkable detail while listening to the personal stories that brought them into being. In addition, a digital model of one of the miniatures, created by Steven W. Marcus, simulates how these treasured objects were handled.   Two Views of Eero Saarinen: The Architectural Photography of Balthazar Korab and Ezra Stoller   EXHIBIT School of Architecture Gallery, April 2 - May 4, 2001   The Ankle-Diver   PRESENTATION October 2000, performance December 2000 PRODUCER Matthew Suttor, Faculty, Dept. of Music ASSOCIATE PRODUCER Tim Acito (Grad. Drama '02)   An allegorical story will be the basis for this secular oratorio and interactive multimedia presentation. The performance will take place simultaneously in both a theatre space on the campus and a real-time interactive installation projected onto the facade of the DMCA. The installation will be controlled by a mult-user interative environment which will telecast images to the theatre. The installation becomes the backdrop for the live performance. The video installation may be used as advertising for the production, video footage for the production, and as a storefront spectacle for the DMCA.   Face of the Arts   PRESENTATION November 2000 PRODUCERS Scott Campbell, Robert Genova, Matthew Seidel [Arch. '01]   Project abstract: The creation of an interactive CD- ROM that explores the relationships between five major art buildings on the Yale Campus: Street Hall, the Yale University Art Gallery, the Art and Architecture Building, the British Art Center, and the new School of Art . One section of the CD-ROM will be a digital video narrative that illustrates these buildings, including drawings, photographs, and film, illustrating various artists contributions to the buildings or our historical record of them. A second section of the CD-ROM will consist of an interactive database which allows users to access the photographs and drawings, information about these documents, and their significance in the development of the arts district at Yale.
