Jeanne Scandura will present Warp Three: An Interactive Installation of Video and Space, a multimedia work that explores the positive relationship and possibility of "nearness" between time and the spatial experience, the physical body and the virtual body through the use of video, architecture, and sculpture as organized by technology, materiality, and light. The installation builds upon research done during previous projects, including life-size paintings and raw video produced during the 2000 Fringe Festival, and manipulated video created during the 2001 Fringe Festival; this year, Warp Three explores our knowledge of the inhabitable world through the virtual disembodiment of a building facade.

A practicing architect for eight years, Scandura has headed her own firm, Scan-Design, since 2001, practicing a holistic approach to design, landscape architecture, architecture, and interior design. She recently co-founded a new furniture/manufacturing company called Float (www.floatland.com). Scandura holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Pennsylvania and is an adjunct faculty member at Philadelphia University’s Department of Architecture.
