New York artist Perry Hoberman presents three unique interactive media
installations this autumn at NMPFT. Combining the utterly obsolete with the
state-of-the-art, they force us to re-examine and re-imagine our
technological universe. All three pieces - Lightpools, 1998 (by Perry
Hoberman and Galeria Virtual) Timetable, 1999 (winner, Grand Prix, ICC
Biennale '99), and Workaholic, 2000 - are making their UK debut.
