DAVID McALLISTER
McAllister produces work which forms a marriage between sculptural form and technology. He draws his aesthetic from computer animations and comic book pages, creating animated, interactive caricatures of recognisable forms. For this ambitious project he combines projection animation, sculpture and robotics.

ALEX HETHERINGTON
Hetherington will develop performances and film screenings around pre-existing material which will build in layers, constantly changing during the exhibition. The concept of virtual spaces will be exploited by connecting the artists and activities in Scotland with equivalent artists and activities in San Francisco and Los Angeles.

With: Jim Colquhoun, Ben Shaffer, Ben Fallon, Lyndsay Mann, Lewis Holleran, Janie Nicoll, Simon Gowing, Pete Nelson, Karla Milosovich, Richard T Walker, Ulrike Müller, Chris McCann and Victoria Skogsberg, and references to material from 1980 motion picture Cannibal Holocaust, directed by Ruggero Deodato.
