Gareth Long, ‘Live subtitles’ (2005)

The installation used voice recognition software to cull the voices of the spectators, turning their speech into live captions superimposed on a live video feed.

Mark Leckey‘s ‘GreenScreenRefrigerator’ (2010)

A black Samsung Bottom Freezer Refrigerator was filmed live in front of an audience at Gavin Brown’s Enterprise. The Fridge stood on a green screen infinity cyc while Leckey coaxed it into revealing its thoughts and actions.

Stills from ‘Live feed’ by Erin Shireff

In Shireff’s online project Live Feed (2007–ongoing) we can watch her walking around a vaguely human-shaped mound of clay that dominates her tiny studio. Though this is supposedly a ‘live feed’ of artistic creation, despite Shirreff’s constant movement the clay monolith lies inert, failing to take shape as a sculpture.

Sjaak Langenberg, ‘Mental expansion of Schiphol Airport’ (1999)

The school canteen of Cals College in the Dutch town of IJsselstein was connected live, at varying times each day, with the announcement headquarters of Amsterdam Airport, Schiphol. This audio art-work was provoked by the link between noise pollution around Schiphol airport and the Lopik broadcasting mast, which causes IJsselstein particular nuisance.

Oskar Dawicki, ‘I’m sorry’ (2010)

Live in front of the audience Dawicki reads a text explaining he’s sorry for the failed performance he’s giving. Finally, to make up for wasting the audience’s time and the curator’s chance of putting on a good show, he hands out sweets while a taperecorder plays the sound of him crying and once more apologizing.

A performance seen in Rotterdam during Witte de With’s performance cycle ‘Let us compare mythologies’. Pictures by Peter Rakossy.
