Transfiguration: An Electronic Audio and Visual Installation by Chris Daubert (Oct 16-Jan 8, 2011)
Inspired by the astronomical and mystical functions of the Temple of Chalchihuites in the northern desert of Durango, Mexico, Daubert has created a multi-part installation featuring motion sensors that feed a moving soundscape across one wall and activate a ghostly abstracted image for viewers to interpret deeper in the gallery. Two lectures will accompany this exhibit - click here for details.

A Mile of Tape
Interactive Installation by Danny Sheible
“A Mile of Tape” is a contemporary take off on the 1942 "Mile of String" created by Marcel Duchamp, whose insightful probing of the boundaries of art continues to resonate with artists generations later.
Danny Scheible’s installation at the Blue Line Gallery consists entirely of tape donated by the 3M company. It includes an interactive opportunity for visitors to help install a mile of ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape meandering across the gallery walls, floor and ceiling, as well as a large masking tape installation sculpted by Scheible.
"Visitors to the Blue Line will be invited to create their own experiences and add their own unique voices to the installation," says Scheible.
The artist will demonstrate different sculptural uses for masking tape at the Blue Line Gallery every Tuesday in July during Downtown Tuesday Nights, 5-8pm and July 17, 10am-5pm.
