August 16, 1977. All of America was stunned by the news of Elvis Presley's untimely passing. Some went so far as to believe that it couldn't be true. Somehow he had faked his death. For the executives at Sun Records that fantasy became an opportunity in the form of Orion, a mysterious masked performer with the voice of The King. First appearing in 1979, Orion recorded 11 albums and performed live to packed houses and rapturous fans around the nation. But who was the man behind the mask? In this stranger-than-fiction true story, Jeanie Finlay exposes the incredible life of an unknown singer plucked from obscurity and thrust into the spotlight with the complicity of a manipulative music industry and a public fan base unwilling to let The King go. Resonant in its themes of identity, fate, and the double-edged nature of fame, Orion is a stylish mystery story that finally gives a name and a face to a gifted artist who had been unjustly deprived of both.

Can turbulent processes be used to affect the stability of video’s digital frame? In comparison, injecting such a problem into an analog video signal is more clear-cut. That is, one can use electronic feedback to affect the image raster (its “frame”), collapsing the entire image-field in an elaborate morphogenetic display. However, with digital video, the destabilizing (and deterritorializing) of the frame is very indirect. Thus, instead of an electronic signal, “Indirect” uses a dataset of a turbulent phenomenon – in this case, the blowing wind. These changes in wind intensity, the continual flux of gusts and calm, are derived from a common computer-vision technique. The data output of this computer-vision analysis maps the wind’s turbulence onto moving fields of color.

What's in a name? For Sugiharti Halim, though, a name can lead to a never-ending question. At times funny, annoying, and contradictory: Does one really need a "real" name? Can you sell your name? Is it true that you can hide your identity behind a name? "Sugiharti Halim" offers a perspective that is comical, provocative, contextual, and deserving to be re-examined today.
