C3 Gallery was pleased to present the U.S. premiere of Jordan Tinker’s and Ross Goldstein’s collaboration copymachineparkranger,
an experimental work in progress.
As an artist, Jordan Tinker works in different medias, such as painting on wood panels, conceptual photography and sculpture.
His works have been widely shown in galleries, institutions and museums in New York, Switzerland and Japan, as well as several times at the Basel Art Fair.
Ross Goldstein is a self-taught composer and visual artist, who has been working since 1999 on a series of American sound collage albums,
which were released on his own mom-and-pop label Champ Records (champrecords.com).

As in a previous collaboration, an installation shown at the Aldrich Museum, copymachineparkranger consists of
visuals and sounds that merge in a non-traditional manner, both play equally strong roles.
The result of this unique co-operation is an imaginary landscape, a fantasy world, existing of different layers of sound and images used over and over again.
The imagery Tinker uses comes from existing sketches, personal photos, and mass medias, all assembled and layered using a copy machine.
The process of the sound creation is similar: the original sound of a copy machine was used and re-recorded. For Ross Goldstein, the challenging part was finding
how many sounds can be generated with the machine. The sound should create a certain way of mystery, a sonic evidence, a filling in of the atmosphere and not
mimicking the source. The aspect of experiment — not knowing where it will go and how it will end, or if it will end at all — is the key impetus of the collaboration.
