video and music production to teens. They have also
been active in the Taos Talking Picture Film Festival,

Teen Media Conference.
Residency Description
The 2scottS will use video, sound
and art as a way to explore the shifting interconnections
that make up our world. By using the trains that exist
on the other side of the wall here at PlatteForum
as a metaphor for the containers that we all are,
they will create a framework to explore issues of
community, social patterns and connections, chance
and change.
They propose a finished installation
that will incorporate work from students, themselves,
sculptural pieces and an interactive environment that
will take the gallery visitor on a journey outside
of normal linear experience.
By using TVs, video projection,
surveillance cameras, sound systems and sculpture,
their installation will serve as a frame work to explore
the physical and mental landscape that PlatteForum
inhabits – from the real to the virtual; the
past to the future; the interior to the exterior.
