Since 2001, Tali Hinkis and Kyle Lapidus have been working collaboratively under the artist identity of LoVid, combining their complementary interests in visual art, technology, music, and science. LoVid’s interdisciplinary work explores social, personal, and corporal experiences in the networked era. LoVid’s performances include sculptural instruments and explosive audiovisuals. LoVid’s installations and objects draw visitors into visceral works, preserving and extending the experience of live video. LoVid’s object-based works are playful as well as aggressive, combining hand-made and machine produced craft, DIY electro-engineering, textiles, video, and noise. LoVid's recent work focuses on tactile interactions between technology and the human body and engages the audience as active participants.

Jill Magid seeks intimate relations with impersonal structures. She is intrigued by hidden information, being public as a condition for existence, and intimacy in relation to power and observation. Magid's solo exhibitions include the Whitney Museum of American Art; Tate Modern, London; Yvon Lambert in New York and Paris; Stedelijk Museum Bureau Amsterdam; and Gagosian Gallery, NYC. Upcoming exhibitions include the Singapore Biennial, and Berkeley Art Museum, California. Magid lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
