III Points Festival

Multimedia arts summit brings a talent packed lineup to Wynwood

Miami artist Ahol

Set to run from October 3 through October 5, III Points – a Wynwood-based summit set to offer exceptional talents from the worlds of music, art and technology – will feature lectures, film screenings, art, interactive games and seminars. Local art galleries will be participating with extended viewing hours and the artists involved will provide a sensory emersion between music, art, and technology.

III Points has teamed up with TwinHaus, the Miami-based experimental engineering agency, to curate the art portion of the summit. TwinHaus is the brainchild of Tara Long, a performance-based installation and video artist, and partner Yamil Rodriguez, a musician and installation artist.

The artists participating in III Points are predominantly local artists and the majority of the art will be conceptualized and installed specifically for this event. III Points will activate satellite locations that will host the artists’ work. Some locations include Gramps, Cafeina, The Butcher Shop and Wynwood Cigar Factory.

On Friday and Saturday nights, there will be a large installation around the main stage at Wynwood Cigar Factory that integrates art and technology. There will be 3D projection mapping, a new technology which animates stationary objects with 3D video. Spearheading the 3D projection mapping is Jason Peterman with AV-8 Projects and Tecne Collective.

Another performance – “The Drive-In” – will be an interactive site specific performance involving movement, audio, and cars. Artists participating are Patricia Margarita Hernandez, Samantha Kruze, Ana Mendez, and Richard Vergez.

Artists involved with III Points include: Ahol, Ana Mendez, Bhakti Baxter, Borscht, Brian Butler, Casey Zap, Chris Video, Dade Wear, David Lynch Foundation, Domingo Castillo, Jason Peterman with AV-8 Projects, Tecne Collective, Jillian Mayer, John Sevingy, Koreless, Lab Miami, Luis Pinto, Miami Spaces, Patricia Margarita Hernandez, Richard Vergez, Samantha Kruse, Santlov, Sleeper, So It Seems, Strangeways, Sum Of Us Films, T.M.
