Interview Me
Dec 09 - Jan 31
A Sound Installation by Artists Curry/Dillon
Throughout the months of December and January, Northwest Film Forum will host a sound installation entitled Interview Me (excerpt) by artists Laura Curry and Lori Dillon. In July 2010 in an empty office space on Capitol Hill, Curry/Dillon interviewed about a dozen strangers (and a few friends) who answered an anonymous ad. All interviewees were asked the same question and given a time constraint. Interview Me – which will be installed in the two bathrooms at the Film Forum – presents the interviewees’ unedited responses.
The evening-length version of Interview Me is an interactive multi-media experience using pre-recorded and real-time audio and video playback, live performance, and installation challenging the framework definitions and histories of "an interview". The complete work will premiere at Northwest Film Forum as part of the series on September 15 – 17, 2011.
