Belief
"Belief" is one third of the 3 channel video installation, "Primer" I exhibited at the Front Gallery from May 8th-June 6th, 2010. With my most recent work, I have been researching and exposing tactics of corporate television advertising that are, for the most part, culturally degenerative memes overlooked by the general public. I create a skeleton commercial built from the tone, cadence, verbal and graphic illusions that comprise a corporate propaganda campaign. I then fill the shell with my own agenda, which is to reveal that the form itself is psychologically manipulative. I infuse them with my own contemporary style and present them as a seamless loop, which translates them from a parasitic corporate language to one of viewer empowerment. I have a great time making and showing these. They make me laugh and they are intended to make the viewer laugh when they have a realization of their own. I want people to understand without insulting their intelligence. Many people ask me if I am "being serious or not" with my work. To me, everything I make is intended as a joke of some sort, but laughing and understanding are synonymous to me. a video installation by Dave Greber TV Boxes Roel Miranda Dave Greber Starring Camilla Bergin Andy Cook Tessa Corthell Stephen Kennedy Roel Miranda JJ Smith Robert Ries Jen DeGregorio Valorie Polmer Lea Downing Alden Eagle Katie Gelfand Matthew Holdren Brandon Meginley Phil Rached Asst.

SPORTS is an interactive multimedia experience by Dave Greber, Adam Montegut, Roel Miranda, Peter Leonard, and Phil Rached.Chicanes or "strategically placed objects", are used to slow traffic entering an area so that individuals can be monitored and evaluated. In SPORTS, we impede the progress of the gallery-goer through periodic reconfigurations of our chicanes in order to subvert typical gallery-opening pedestrian-patterns.
