Descrizione:
Dave Griffiths' filmworks and video installations dwell on physical or imaginary borders in media spaces and forms. His "close-up epics" touch on illusions of security and perfection that surround technologies, and attempt to commemorate their temporary structures. Dave uses video and sonic material, often arising from laborious search or unstable technical methods, to devise encounters between media apparatus and the inscription of accidental, surplus or abandoned codes. Dave exhibits in a variety of festival programmes, galleries, microcinemas and artist-run spaces. He graduated from the MA Media Art programme at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2004. Along with Nick Jordan , in 2003 he curated and published the Codec/x DVD of video & sonic collaborations from Manchester that toured internationally. In 2004 Dave helped to develop the Purescreen artist's video screenings & publications for Castlefield Gallery, Manchester. He teaches video practice in north-west England, and is currently attempting to produce filmworks using mobile media, interactive systems, and data visualisation. Dave Griffith has been making experimental compositions for several years, originally using two tape decks and progressing to affordable digital technology. He occasionally makes live performance and augments his sounds with "real" musicians as Beat Science.
