Scott K James

Visual/Audio performance

This site is about the performance work of Scott K James (aka Scott Keva James). I make things with light and time. I play.

     Or you could say the medium is light, the technologies are video, software, and electricity and the variables are dimension, time, the illusion of motion. I try to recreate the kind of daydreams that happen in my head.

     I'm not so much narrating or telling a story as I am following a lead, exploring. I'm always looking for the ultimate moment where my focus inverts and I lose the sense of self, of location, and find myself in the flow, out of normal time, completely in the moment. That's what I call playing.

     This is a mind state or feeling I used to associate mainly with playing music. The focus on the piece falls away and the thing being created transcends the creator(s), transcends its parts. Now I pursue this same thing in the visual medium, still using my sense of rhythm, phrasing and time-based composition.

      I'm sometimes available to do live mixing, interesting visual installations, etc. I'm always interested in finding like-minded musicians and/or visual artists to work on live, audio/visual integrated works.

     If you're an artist whose material appears on this site and you want it removed, just let me know.
