Video Control Reaction

Video Control Reaction (April 2020– ) is an online-only exhibition created for social isolation in the time of our global pandemic. The videos collected here present a range of approaches to working with film, video, and software, and the point is to emphasize that variety. The works are presented as links to other sites. Whether you make it back or not is up to you. The exhibition will not close; it will end once the links no longer work.
