Details
The acclaimed collaborative artist duo Gibson + Recoder present the San Francisco premiere of their most recent expanded cinema project, The Changeover System: A Projection Performance Installation (2023–25). An ambitious live multi-projection work based on Gibson + Recoder’s 20 years of experimentation with the projection of 35mm celluloid, The Changeover System repurposes film projectors from within the concealed projection booth in a practice they refer to as “prepared projection,” calling attention to the creative agency of the screening room itself.
The Changeover System was developed in close collaboration with sound artist Richard Garet. Whereas Gibson + Recoder disappear into the projection booth, Garet performs within the theater, amid the audience, using amplified EMF emissions, modified audiocassettes, malfunctioning tape players, interactive circuit boards, sonification of light, and computer processing.
