DILATE trio
is a subgroup of a larger collaborative audio-visual ensemble that has been performing together in live, remote and hybrid configurations since the onset of the pandemic. As experimental improvisers, DILATE is committed to live connection that bridges disciplines while in pursuit of innovative ways of thinking about and applying technology, inserting a sense of play, serendipity and creative invention.
We are deep in consideration of “remediation” as a multi-faceted concept and process over time. We must constantly visualize and conjure impactful energy that is both agile and persistent to both breakdown and germinate. “remediation” reinforces the cultivation of compassionate humanity.
Carole Kim is an interdisciplinary artist with a focus on multi-media installation, video projection, live and telematic performance, drawing and digital prints. Her work spans diverse contexts including experimental art, music, dance, theater and site-specific installation. Kim’s hands-on approach to working with materials and exploring the organic application of digital technologies crafts a hybrid visual language that moves fluidly between analog and digital. She creates other-worldly environments that allow for magical connections and experiences to unfold.
Kim is currently an artist-in-residence at Blue Roof Studio in LA. Her work has also been supported by NowArt-LA (LUMINEX Festival), Montalvo Arts Center, Headlands Center for the Arts, Descanso Gardens, CalArts, Thoughtworks Arts, Glasslåven kunstsenter, Irvine Foundation, NEA, Center for Cultural Innovation, MAP fund, City of LA (COLA), Pasadena Arts Council, The Music Center, Durfee Foundation, REDCAT, University of California Institute for Research in the Arts, The Getty Center, Automata-LA, SASSAS, Dublab, Freewaves, Newtown and Turbulence.org.
