Zoe Beloff: "Illusions" or "Philosophical Toy World". Inspired by toy cinematic apparatuses from the 19th and early 20th centuries the work creates parallel universes, calling into question corporate visions of progress with their digital utopias. Zoe Beloff is a digital media artist living in New York City and on the web at http://www.zoebeloff.com . She received a residency at Harvestworks in 2000.

Computer 3 will feature a digital work by Tennesee Rice Dixon called "aCount". It is an interactive movie which is responsive to sound levels and to precise movement of the mouse. It moves slowly through a memory and a conversation occurring between two people as they recollect a time in the past spent together. The viewer must speak or hum into the microphone because some parts require sound input order to progress. It is not what is said that matters, it is the level, duration and rhythm of the sound input that is considered. Tennessee has shown her work at The Kitchen '00; Mass MOCA '00; South by Southwest Conference '99 and the Governors Conference on Art and Technology, NY '98. "aCount" was first made in 1998 and has been reworked and new versions have been developed over time. "aCount" was presented in 1998 at the NY Expo of Short Film and Video ; Roulette, NYC; Stephen Gang Gallery, NYC and Harvestworks-Screens and Memes, NYC.

Computer 4 will feature the security desk from the Airworld Project by Kevin and Jennifer McCoy. The Airworld security desk is an online project that displays a database of over 100 office-cams and traffic-cams throughout the world. It creates a live view of the world of work. AIRWORLD is a project about networks, lines of flight, distribution hubs, soft architecture, and global capital located on the web at http://www.Airworld.net . Jennifer and Kevin McCoy are collaborators residing in New York City. For the last several years they have been making interactive computer installations as well as videotapes and net art. They received a Harvestworks Artist In Residence grant in 1999.
