Opening Thursday March 4
Introductory logic video tutorial
SIMON DENNY
Exploring the idea that formal philosophical logic determines validity on the basis of form without needing to know content, Denny will attempt to translate some logical structures to a video installation format, comparing the form of the medium to the form of an argument. During his residency period in Sydney, Denny is attending a course at the University of Sydney on introductory logic, which he will attempt to document by creating videos that teach small points that derive from the course. Halfway between a tutorial video and a videotheque, Denny's exhibition will also document Artspace's entire inventory of monitors serving as a record of the display hardware of the institution.
