TAPECODE 2102.25
An homage to Chicago artist and toolmaker Dan Sandin’s 1973 video, Five-minute Romp through the IP, in which Sandin demos the Image Processor (IP), a modular analog video synthesizer he built the same year, and encouraged artists to copy in his Distribution Religion manifesto. In this video, artists James Connolly and Monica Panzarino perform with the School of the Art Institute of Chicago's IP, a historic tool, as it was one of the first image processors built by Sandin. The artists wear recreations of the unique hat Sandin wore in his 1973 video, which are hand-knit by Panzarino. This piece celebrates the physicality of hardware electronics and the DIY spirit of all things handmade.
