Exquisite Chain Reaction



Exquisite Chain reaction is an animation inspired off of the old surrealist drawing game, Exquisite Corpse.

The rules were...

SOMEONE CREATED 5 SECS OF ANIMATION, STOP-MOTION OR VIDEO & PASSED IT TO SOMEONE ELSE. THEN, THE PERSON THAT RECEIVED THE VIDEO HAD TO CONTINUE FROM THE LAST SCENE OF THE PREVIOUS PERSON AND MAKE ANOTHER 5 SECS. AFTER THAT PERSON FINISHED 5 SECS, THEY ALSO PASSED IT TO SOMEONE ELSE AND THE WHOLE PROCESS REPEATED ITSELF 23 TIMES. THE END RESULT BECAME ONE LARGE SURPRISE DO TO THE FACT THAT ALL PARTICIPANTS DURING THE PROCESS ONLY KNEW WHAT THEIR PIECE AND THE PIECE BEFORE THEIRS LOOKED LIKE.

(Artists were able to use any mediums... Traditional Animation, Cel Animation, 3D Animation, Film, Live Action, Claymation, Stop Motion, Motion Graphics, Processing, Feedback, Datamoshing, etc..)

The Dream Side Pool Party




“Envision this as if Salvador Dali were to throw a pool party in France”, describes Sally Golan. “I want people to swim through a fusion of magic and enchantment and really lose themselves in out little world”. With an electric violin performance, Elixirs of lust sponsored by Voli Light Vodka 200 blue rubber duckies floating in a pool sponsored by United Print Group, a huge surreal purple tree drooping with flowers sponsored by Celadon and Celery Events and House music beats spun by sexy female DJ DJ Heather M, Social Exposure is sure to achieve that.

The four hand picked artists chosen to feature work especially for the event are: Katerina Gubina, Ryan V Brennan, Nick Hayes and Kaliptus Arts. They have been given the task of creating a “fantasy and dream like world’’ by transforming the indoor pool of the Grace Hotel into Salvador’s Dali’s man cave. “I am giving them complete freedom. I said ‘I like your work. Here’s the venue. Now GO’. And we will see what happens”…. Sally exclaims. One thing that is guaranteed: All senses will be explored and people will not know what to do with themselves.




We will be featured in the WEEKENDER SECTION of URBAN DADDY which means MILLIONS of hits!

Other press includes:
URBAN DADDY MAGAZINE
NEW YORK MAGAZINE
