Using salvaged materials, new technology, the weather and custom software, Winnipeg artist
Ken Gregory crafts a unique installation work centered around the exploration of the relationship
between the weather and the human condition. In an unscientific way and with an artists creative
eye Gregory looks at how this relationship is mediated by modern technology. Installation works include several microprocessor controlled kinetic sculptures, a video projection on ice utilizing
satellite imagery, an animated machine performance trio, an interactive emotion as weather data
collection kiosk , a projected clear packing tape collage and others.
Winnipeg artist Ken Gregory has been working with DIY interface design,
hardware hacking, audio, video, and computer programming for over 10
years. His provocative and creative performance and installation work
has shown publicly in Winnipeg, other parts of Canada as well as many
international media and sound arts festivals.
Anything is part of Gregorys palette and using cut and paste techniques,
random juxtapositions, and careful manipulations he crafts unique and
provocative art works. These works are presented in the form of gallery
installations, live performances, live radio broadcasts, custom computer
software and audio compact discs.
Gregory has performed at many clubs, music and art festivals and has
done extensive work as a sound engineer, composer, and audio
designer for independent film, performance, media and video.
