I am an interdisciplinary artist with a focus on live video performance and performance-based video installation. Digital/new media technologies interface with the sensitivity of the improvisational live performer. The installations explore the illusory architecture of layered video projection in space. The use of live-feed cameras introduces the human form into this layered landscape, mediating the body while preserving the dynamic edge of the live performer. The performance/installations are multi-sensory immersive environments that often explore a de-centralized viewing space. Kim seeks a generative hybrid of disciplines that collapses boundaries and supports an integrated reciprocal exchange between sound, image, movement, space.****************************************************** *********************************** A particular love for live improvisational new music has fostered many sound/image collaborations with musician/composers including Nels Cline, GE Stinson, Jesse Gilbert, Hahn Rowe, Steve Roden, Akira Rabelais, Sara Schoenbeck, Harris Eisenstadt, Leticia Castaneda, Albert Ortega, Ellen Burr, Catherine Lamb, Yorgos Adamis, Motoko Honda, Gilbert Nouno, Joelle Leandre, Carla Bozulich, Alex Cline, Scott Amendola.
