Doing the Gooey
a project by gooeyTEAM*…
gooeyTEAM takes the ubiquitous and rarely considered ‘graphical user interface’ out of the electronic aether and makes it massive, squelchy, fleshy and absurd, using people and the simplest of materials, begging the question…
how can we all DO the Gooey?
This ongoing experimental project takes the daily use of all kinds of GUIs as its point of departure and transfers all these flattened movements, communicative techniques and screen-based commands back into a spatial reality.
Cryptic Nights: crossing creative boundaries with live music, visual and sonic art, film and new media. First Thursday of every month of 2010 at CCA, Glasgow.20.00// Tickets £5 // 0141 352 4900
