February 4 Tubular You

Getting To Know You(Tube) is a social practice art project twice removed. Artists Crystal Baxley and Stefan Ransom invite their creative friends to curate about 10-15 minutes each of YouTube video shorts from the vast corpus of often amateur video. The root of the word amateur is amo, to love. So amateur is in contrast to professional, work usually done for money and with a big budget. Maybe we should honor love more? Tonight Tracey Cockrell, Rebecca Carlisle-Healy and Adam Moser share a few of their favorite YouTube videos. The audience is invited to bring a link to one of their own favorites to share at the end of the program. Please no tiresome music videos.
