International Artists / Musicians in New York
Greetings,
ScribeMedia.Org is starting a video series on international artists and musicians and their cultural contributions to New York City, and are gathering a roster of people to interview and/or profile.
These can be anyone from established players/artists to a cab driver who also happens to be an exceptional kora player.
People who fit the bill include visual and performance artists as well as musicians. Filmmakers and documentarians fit the bill too. The point though is that they've come from abroad for whatever reason (political, economic, or just because they though NYC would be better than wherever it is they're coming from) and are trying to make it here.
If you know of individuals, groups or organizations you think we'd benefit from getting in touch with, please let us know.
You can find out more about us at http://www.scribemedia.org, and view our profile of Shapeshifters at http://www.scribemedia.org/2007/06/21/weather-report-01/
You can contact us at pubs [at] scribemedia [dot] org.
I like this posting!

Hi Michael,
this is one example I can contribute: http://www.sukkoch.com
YouŽll find this text on their website. "Violet Suk & Martin Koch relocated to New York City in 1998 to induce their Asian-European sensibility into American pop culture. Two years later the Duo formed their own company Suk & Koch Media Inc.. They find a playground in broadcast design, creating numerous Image campaigns and Show Designs for networks like Sci Fi Channel, MTV networks, USA network, Comedy Central, She TV and IndemandHD among many others. Soon, getting somewhat bored from only TV projects, they return to their roots exploring music videos, short films and commercials for Sony Music, Mercury Records, Universal, Red Bull, BMW, Calvin Klein, Artistry, Helmut Lang among others. Their short films and commercials have been screened multiple times at Ars Electronica, ResFest, Transmediale, IDN conference and Creativity Magazines No-spot Festival. Their music videos and commercials have been nominated and awarded at MVPA, Promax/BDA, New York Festival, Ars Electronica,CCA, Art Directors Club of Europe among others. Never standing still, continuously perfecting and augmenting their visual language, Suk & Koch prepare for their ultimate challenge: Feature Films." Say hi to them If you happen to talk to Martin or Violet.
