TIME RELEASED PERFORMANCE
Friday, January 6th, 7pm

 -TAMPA BAY / SARASOTA TRIBUNE-
"Cro-Ken, readied with the projected live image of a preset textured and framed tabletop terrain on the wall and paint colors in hand, commenced to pour the colors onto his canvas. The audience watched the paint flow, eddy round the contours, blend together and repeat. In much the same way, the live and recorded oboe of Matt Sullivan sequences looped, layered and blended together in intriguing ways."
