Cary Peppermint
CONDUCTOR NUMBER ZERO V6.4
TECHNO-LECTURES OF MEMORY, DISTANCE & FORGETTING

Internet video artstreams from a live performance by New York based 
artist Cary Peppermint at CCA, Glasgow in July 2002. Also audio mp3's 
from Cary's performance at Postmasters, NYC, April 2002.

Conductor Number Zero V6.4 is part of an ongoing series of 
performances (in update) that began in 1997. Each performance 
incorporates surveillance technology, so the audience observes 
simultaneously the performance event and its real-time approximation 
through video.

Cary Peppermint's work involves a broad conceptualist approach to 
net.art that permeates a multitude of social networks within and 
beyond the Internet. His works comprise some of the first real-time 
performance art conducted over the Internet including the legendary 
Mashed Potato Supper between New York and Edinburgh in 1996.

artstream is an experimental project exploring the potentials of 
artists' use of streaming media. artstream comprises occasional 
projects with live and prerecorded material. artstream is a New Media 
Scotland project.

Conductor Number Zero Version 6.4 is brought to you by New Media 
Scotland in collaboration with CCA, Glasgow. V6.0 of the performance 
was presented at Postmasters in April. Supported by the Franklin 
Furnace Fund for Performance Art.
