The complete two-channel "Learning Stalls: Lesson Plans"
a collaboration between Torsten Zenas Burns and Darrin Martin
will be making its Asian premiere in this show.

Learning Stalls:Lesson Plans is both the name of an installation
and a 66-minute videotape that can be screened as a singular unit,
as a two-channel installation or in chapter clusters. Several edits of
Learning Stalls, Lesson Plans, the 66 minute tape, have screened
and exhibited at various venues. Steve Seid at Pacific Film Archives
describes Learning Stalls, Lesson Plans as “an episodic adventure
about extra-evolutionary transformation. Organized as ‘lesson plans,’
this unique work is an ambitious tutorial for the neo-nauts of inner space.”
