This episode curated by Tory Wright
Acid Rain Productions
Acid Rain Production is a televised experimental video series that I (Jerstin Crosby) produce and curate. It currently broadcasts on cable access channels: The Peoples Channel, and Durham Access Media in North Carolina, and Manhattan Neighborhood Network in New York. Acid Rain Production is a unique venue for contemporary video work in which a single video art piece loops consistently for one hour, several times a week, for one month, on community-based tv stations that reach directly into homes and businesses. Through the medium of television, I hope to successfully link new-media artists to the community at large and bring about a better understanding of contemporary issues of artistic practice and social concern.
Participating artists include: Josh Tonies, Ben Russell, Peter Burr, Jesse McLean, Thad Kellstadt, Michael Robinson, Ryan Trecartin, Jacob Ciocci, Niels Post, Laura Larson, Jesse Hulcher, David Colagiovanni, Lydia Moyer, Carl Diehl, Tony Balko, Guthrie Lonergan and Jason Polan.

DIY RAPTURE / CELL GALLERY/ LONDON/ July 4th-August 2nd 2009
North Carolina is a region of the USA that international art media often overlook. With an attempt to recognise an alternative view of American culture Cell Project Space invite Team Lump, an artist collective based in Raleigh that has been actively collaborating with other artists, galleries, institutions and museums for over a decade. By acknowledging practices from artist run communities based in the lesser known regions of the USA the exhibition will attempt to highlight the unique identity which Team Lump and its artists have adopted.
Founder, Bill Thelen, invites artists into the collective, and consequently the team fluctuates from project to project. In an informal but public exhibition space they share a typically connected DIY aesthetic and within their self publishing activities document a flourishing peripatetic art scene, which is reminiscent of many artist run collectives throughout urban America. Drawing from fields as diverse as folk art, nuclear physics, science fiction, animal rights, outsider psychology, electronic music, and film noir they platform art, music, performance, discussion and event. Developing ideas organically, Team Lump adapt to each new exhibition space, installing a mix of paintings, drawings, sculpture, wall drawings, and film to create a seemingly chaotic vision, which tap into distinct commentaries.
