The launch of Belvedere Vodka in Turkey kicked off with a party at Esma Sultan Palace in Istanbul.

Traditional Turkish sounds later gave way to Western hits and pounding house music as the hours passed, and the visuals changed accordingly without missing a beat.

Ricardo Villalobos kicked it at a banging afterhours party at Ghetto to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Soap System. artificialeyes.tv's roaming visuals projected by video mirror units onto large cobweb like "screens" hanging from the ceiling served the minimalicious bass-heavy music well. The gig which took place on the 2nd floor above the usual performance space had an impromptu, illegal rave feel to it.

The curtain formed an attractive backdrop to the singers and dancers who performed as well as literally letting the names of those being honored see their name in lights.

artificialeyes.tv's visuals and a DJ set served up by DJ Peter Hook nearly had the hopped up crowd at Babylon approximating the pogo to the sounds of Factory Records and "Madchester", England. Righteous nostalgia from the bassist of Joy Division and New Order.

artificialeyes.tv provided visuals at the KRAL Video Müzik Awards held at Istanbul Gösteri ve Kongre Merkezi. 10 projectors capable of moving projections contributed to the atmosphere and ambience of the evening. The program was graced by the presence of legendary singer and actor, Orhan Gencebay.

VJ Synesthete at the end of a 4 day visit to the Rhode Island based studio of Duncan Laurie, culminating in a session controlling artificialeyes.tv's 3L VJ application with his mind via the IBVA system. After a few mis-starts and some worry that he was terminally brain dead, some results were had. The video is a 5 am recap of getting everything up and running.

A Late night jam with Duncan Laurie and plants. The plants were mediated through the IBVA system and a Wheatstone Bridge driving an Eventide Orvillle Harmonizer.

Miller, performing under the moniker of "DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid." artificialeyes.tv opened the evening, performing alongside Korhan Kaya.

In The month of February, artificialeyes.tv continues the exploration of the live cinema form with two renowned performers from the UK: *spark and dr. mo. These two artists have defined and participate in pushing the envelope in the live performance of audio visual entertainment both in the UK, and worldwide, performing to ecstatic audiences at acclaimed festivals such as The Big Chill and Burning Man. artificialeyes.tv Live Cinema Nights provide an environment to watch, dance, and communicate, where ground breaking examples of live visual art are combined with accessible music genres, and provides a platform for national and international artists to explore new forms of visual communication and entertainment. The historical Yeni Melek Theatre provides the perfect infrastructure for artificialeyes.tv to create unique and inspiring video installations: no two evenings are the same. Utilizing multiple layers of semi transparent screens as well as multiple projectors, every event is an absorbing sensory experience nothing like the static cinema of the last century.

With Toby Harris (aka *spark) and dr. mo in Istanbul for the upcoming LIVE CINEMA NIGHTS at Yeni Melek, an invitation from Arda of Abstre to come check out their visuals at an opening event that would feature the KLF seemed like just the ticket. But, like so many other fans, our hopes were dashed as it turned out not to be the KLF.

artificialeyes.tv whipped up a quick proof of concept for controlling Vidvox's VDMX 5 with a Sony Ericsson Mobile Phone ( in this case a K750i ) via Bluetooth. AE is hoping to get their hands on the newly released W880i for some more up to date phone action.

arificialeyes.tv trekked to Vienna to visit the offices of VMS (Video Moving Systems) to get two of their Video Mirror Units. AE got to try them out that same night at Dub Club, held in Flex.
