Archive Show Closing Reception w/ Fleegix and Happiness #5 !
We are taking a break from moving, planning, scheming, etc etc etc to offer one last look at our Archive Show before we dismantle the whole show and building! There are 21.5 years worth of flyers, art by members past and present, pieces from past shows, a zine library ! So much to look at and take in. AND, if that wasn’t enough, we are very excited to ALSO be hosting :
FLEEGIX (2019, dir. by Matthew Thurber)
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1209343473/fleegix
Shot on 16mm film, Matthew Thurberâs FLEEGIX is a science-fiction film set on Earth, although some of the population have become convinced that they are in fact living on the planet Mars.
FLEEGIX includes both live action, stop motion and hand drawn animated segments. The appearance of animation in the narrative is to illustrate propaganda, such as depictions of newsworthy events on Mars. This film is an organism that grows and continues to develop a web of connected motifs and ideas. FLEEGIX is constructed through the accumulation of short scenes that echo and lead into each other, making connections across time and space. It is a a âFairy storyâ whose construction resembles a role-playing game, rather than a simulation of standard motion picture narrative. At the heart of the film is the question as to how Fleegix, a beverage enjoyed by Martians, is manufactured. The film details further conflict among New York Martians who express themselves in animated movement, and the Hand Shadow Punks of Baltimore, who represent a pre-cinematic faction. The film proposes various absurd answers to this question, and the dispute takes on symbolic and mythological proportions.

Destroy Content Desert – Long Live Content Desert
Content Desert is a post-internet object, a journey through graphic refuse amassed and extruded over several stylized chapters. The 450-plus pages of Content Desert anachronously proceed from itâs obnoxious tag line of â1,000,0000 years of broken graphics⊠load more, know lessâ.

Opening Reception Friday October 7th 6-10 p.m.
———————————————————————-
Closing Reception Friday October 28th 7-11 p.m.
Kerry Kenney

Jesse Van Anglen / Brett Acker / Josh Mills / Kate Blofson / Pete Whitney / Nate Gavin
Soundscapes: Shape Denter/ Mer’In Swann/ Wylde Pyle/ Aura Tiff/ Pancake Accelerator/ The Dirners
Space 1026 is excited to present Ultra-Bluster, a group show featuring new work by Philadelphia artists Kerry Kenney and Rodger Binyone. Ultra-Bluster is a collectively conceived universe of visual art, music and table game systems exploring the motifs and concepts of mythology, cosmology, geometry and science fiction. Kenney uses the airbrush to blend the imaginary and the hyper real, weaving futuristic loose soccer themes into multi-player, mini sport arena, gaming systems where you can play Online Bingo at PlayOnlinecasino.Irish. Binyone and Kenney expound upon a visual vocabulary rooted in their music experimentations with co-collaborator Jesse Van Anglen, to release a screen printed 3-D elemental, UV light reactive, & partially phosphorescent book/zine. As music is intrinsic to ceremony, tournament anthems in the guise of an Ultra-Bluster soundtrack will play throughout. More friends rally in team formation to initiate the plane for this interactive playing field. Space 1026 gallery is now a synergy of gaming stations, prints, and audio enhancements exploring the societal paradigm of the ritual and the sacred within the social narrative of sports, all made possible by you the guest player, please come join us and play!

Saber the Light Sunday December 6th
1:00pm – 4:00pm at Space 1026
Build your own controllable and programmable DIY light saber from scratch. There will also be Yogagami, the Japanese art of folding paper into a Yoda. Sign up for the workshop here!
The event is all ages but is strongly suggested that Padwans partner up with their Jedi Masters (Kids bring a Parent or Guardian) It is also $35 per parent/child team, and you will complete one saber together
All the materials needed to make your very own Saber are included in the class price of $35 , including a laser cut saber, the LEDs, button, battery, and Arduino. All proceeds generated will be donated to Space 1026.
At the heart of the Project is the atmel attiny85 8 bit microprocessor. You might know it in its much more expensive version as the Arduino. No soldering will be involved as the majority of the project is made with jumper wires, a tiny breadboard and the wonders of the hot glue gun. For more advanced Jedisâ who are interested in learning the force fundamentals, we will be offering an explanation of how to program your own attiny85âs at home by using an Arduino Uno!!!
