SUMMARY:Aleph Null\, Graphic Synthesizer - Jim Andrews in the Massy Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of Jim Andrew’s Aleph Null\, Graphic Synthesizer at the Massy Gallery\, featuring works signed by and created in collaboration with Bill Bisset. \nOpening Reception\, Friday October 25th at 6pm\nExhibiting through till November 20. \n“I created the prints in my Oct 25 – Nov 20\, 2019 show at Massy Books in Vancouver with interactive\, generative software I wrote called Aleph Null. I’ve been writing it since 2011. It’s up to version 3.1 as of this writing; I have plans for version 4.0. I haven’t written myself into a corner yet\, and I can see many exciting possibs. It’s not an AI—if a requirement of AI is that it learns; some say it is; others say it’s sufficient that the program seems intelligent. The person using Aleph Null is required to do the learning—like you learn how to play an instrument or use a tool—and Aleph Null is\, well\, more about being beautiful than intelligent. It’s an online program to explore some of the possibilities of interactive\, generative art. I think of it as part instrument\, part tool\, and part work of art itself.”\nvispo.com/massy

SUMMARY:Thicket - Melanie Janisse-Barlow
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch of Melanie Janisse-Barlow’s second book of poetry\, “Thicket.” \nMelanie Janisse-Barlow’s second book of poetry\, Thicket\, is a treatise on risk and the uncertainties of language in the modern world. In poems that gather and collect force page after page\, Thicket negotiates humankind’s overwhelming desire to communicate\, and the discomfort that comes with the process of entanglement/disentanglement. When Janisse-Barlow writes of a “thousand awkward conversations\,” she’s working away at the knots of language\, unraveling and recombining the threads to create self-styled lyric essays. Thicket is a linguistic tour de force. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR: \nMelanie Janisse-Barlow is a poet and artist. Her collection of poetry\, Orioles in the Oranges (Guernica\, 2009)\, was listed for the Relit Award\, and her essay poems Detroit were listed in Best American Essays (2013). She lives between her home in Windsor\, Ontario and her wooden boat Kalinka in Toronto. \nABOUT THE EVENT: \nThis event is taking place on the unceded territories of the Musqueam\, Squamish and Tseil-Waututh Nations. \nThe upstairs gallery at Massy Books is not accessible at this time. \nMassy Books is easily accessible by transit! Close to the 22\, 3\, 8 and 19 bus lines at Main and Georgia/Gore and Georgia. There is metered street parking along Georgia\, or lot parking at the Sun Wah Centre around the corner (268 Keefer)
