The art of the minimal

26 January 202226 January 2022 Tizzy Canucci

Centred on the artist as avatar, she builds, breaks down, gestures, cries, dissolves. Colour passes over her monochromatic existence. At all times somebody and nobody. An exercise in the minimal. I don’t want to produce perfect art. I want to explore. Predictable, maybe sometimes, because retrying always has some predictability. But not one style. Routine […]

The Art of Music

19 October 202119 October 2021 Tizzy Canucci

When I do video art, I begin with a pile of visuals that have fascinated me. Then I go and look for music, not with an obvious intention, but with an idea, which grows with the right music. This connects with a long interest in music, spanning contemporary music, back through jazz and blues, folk, […]

Time for the Osprey

2 October 20212 October 2021 Tizzy Canucci

It has been a strange time. So little happening for so long, then many things following close to each other. So, as Supernova Digital Animation Festival concludes in Denver on 30 September, I’m looking forward to another, shorter, festival during October. Flames Tear the Soul has been selected for the Osprey Short Film Awards. It […]

Sixth Supernova

14 September 202126 September 2021 Tizzy Canucci

Running a bit behind time on this one. But I finished work yesterday with one job, and start another next week – the mundane realities of life getting in the way. This year I had two machinima/ video art pieces selected for Supernova. I’ll start with the second. The Blue and the Jubilant I wrote […]

Mixed reality at New Media Film Festival

9 June 20219 June 2021 Tizzy Canucci

More things building on previous work! The New Media Film Festival was held in Florida last week, 2-3 June 2021. My work, The Safe Shipment of Small Cargo, had been accepted. I first made the original version of this video art/ machinima in 2017, but it was never quite what I wanted. I was using […]

Art meets science, archive film meets virtual world

12 May 2021 Tizzy Canucci

Selected for another event, this time for my video art/ machinima, Breaking Ice: a 70-Year Story. It’s a work I really like, combining archive film with Second Life material. The style of presentation is sometimes called an audiovisual essay. It explores how our view of the Arctic has both changed and stayed the same over […]

Supernova, the 2021 festival

23 February 202126 September 2021 Tizzy Canucci

Denver Digerati have been promoting their 2021 Supernova animation festival, with one of its early clips recognised my presence there – for five years now. This included being in the competition in 2019 – first time for a work created out of Second Life. They did a great edit for Instagram, but Instagram don’t like […]

And passengers paid a station agent…

12 February 202115 June 2021 Tizzy Canucci

In this small clip of the full version of my machinima/video art, And passengers paid a station agent on Vimeo, the man doing the voice over says; “And passengers paid a station agent who pushed a plunger to unlock a gate to let them in”. Once again, I’m (re)mixing archive and virtual world film, to […]

Of sharing and possessing

19 December 202019 April 2021 Tizzy Canucci

This year I have made my videos using Creative Commons material as usual. However, I realised when using a Beethoven piece that it was 250 years since his birth. So, I’ve drawn on two of his works this year, and its made me think more about how creativity is shared and possessed. And made me […]

Virtual World in Printmaking Exhibitions

3 December 20203 September 2021 Tizzy Canucci

One of the things I have really spent a lot of time on – almost all of the end of 2019 and into 2020 – is spanning virtual worlds with the actual world through printmaking. Of light on screens to ink on paper, using traditional mechanical craft methods. As 2020 comes to a close, lots […]
