ExTV, in collaboration with SAIC’s Ani(MATE) Club, put together In Between to showcase a collection of diverse and creative works from animation students at SAIC. Animation – an often underrepresented and unfairly looked-down-on medium at institutions such as SAIC – has been morphing and reshaping itself continuously at the school and in the creative world.

A???PART, a bi-weekly online exhibition of new time-based work/media, will act as an opportunity to create and share new work in light of resource and creative constraints. We now present Episode One, featuring the work of Jakob Wirth, Minjung Michelle Kim, Siyan Li, Kristina Tokar, Jiayun Lu, and Laura Nicole Haldane. Submissions can serve as a response to the current state of social distancing/living in social isolation or can more broadly demonstrate how you may be adjusting or experimenting with your artistic practice at this time to cope with the current crisis. Of course, with limited access to SAIC’s campus, many students do not have the equipment or materials they are used to having during the semester. While we definitely understand the frustrating aspect of this limitation, we also see potential in the current limitations of access. We are hoping […]

ExTV, in collaboration with SAIC’s Ani(MATE) Club, has put together In Between to showcase a collection of diverse and creative works from animation students at SAIC. Animation – an often underrepresented and wrongfully looked-down-on medium at institutions such as SAIC – has been morphing and reshaping itself continuously at the school and in the creative world.
This screening was originally meant to occur as an in-person event. Despite a lack of access to campus, we still feel that this work is important and deserves a spotlight. We have decided to share this (virtual) space together as we live-stream these students’ work.

ExTV continues to showcase SAIC work and has created a new program titled A???PART, a bi-weekly online exhibition of new time-based work/media made by the SAIC student-faculty-alumni community. Submissions can serve as a response to the current state of social distancing/living in social isolation or can more broadly demonstrate how you may be adjusting or experimenting with your artistic practice at this time and to cope with the current crisis. Of course, with limited access to SAIC’s campus, many of us do not have the equipment or materials that we are accustomed to having during the semester to create work. While we definitely understand the frustrating aspect of this limitation, we also see potential with the current limitations of access. We are hoping that the makers in our community can feel motivated, inspired, and challenged to create unconventional work and […]

Each of the videos in this month’s web program exists somewhere between a fever dream and a nightmarish reality. Through stunning and surreal visuals, the artists behind each have crafted familiar yet unrecognizable worlds, leaving us with more questions than answers.

SEEKING TIME-BASED MEDIA (FILM, VIDEO, NEW MEDIA, ANIMATION, ETC) FROM WOMEN OF COLOR AND FEMME-IDENTIFIED PEOPLE OF COLOR.
CHROMA is a new screening event in response to Women’s Equality Day and in celebration of Women’s History Month. 2020 marks the 100 year anniversary of the day white women in America gained the right to vote. However, it is often misinterpreted as the day all women in America received the right to vote. Throughout the echoes of history, black and brown women were barred from many opportunities and spaces. Female/Femme artists of color still face some of these same barriers in the contemporary world of art and design.
In response, ExTV wishes to host our first ever CHROMA screening, a screening showcasing time-based work from women of color and femme-identified people of color. We hope that through this event we can showcase diverse voices from the margins in our community and use this opportunity to uplift their voices and work.

This month’s web program features works that invoke a sense of uncertainty and reflection either on the part of the viewer or as artistic practice. These works push the viewer to draw upon their own interpretations and viewing experience to create associations and feelings not directly provided by the work, but encouraged by it.
