Rather than keep track of everything, I am going to try to post the media oriented show, as well as those by people I know, and whatever stands out as worth remembering. I will try to include the gallery information and images where possible.

Eddo Stern is well known for his work in video and online gaming. In his current exhibition at postmasters he has extracted elements from online gaming culture and presented them in the gallery as an installation of shadow puppets and video displays where elements from the games have been collaged into a Medusa's head, or mask-like object that ebbs and flows and the elements move together. The works are playful and successfully combine low and high technologies.
SHIGEKO KUBOTA
My Life With Nam June Paik
September 6 - October 20, 2007
Maya Stendhal Gallery

Shigeko Kubota video installation is an environment full of projections and video sculptures. "Conceived of as one video environment, the exhibition presents a landscape of Kubota's magical video sculptures, which at once disorients and transfixes the viewer. It is a dreamland filled with massive crystalline mirror growths, dynamic metal sculptures, and video screen projections that pulsate colorfully like living organisms. Kubota describes the sculptures as a means of communication with another world." Kubota was Nam June Paik's wife and collaborated with him on numerous projects. There is a similarity with their styles and the object nature of their works.
DANIEL ROZIN
September 8 - October 6
Bitforms Gallery

Daniel Rozen's interactive works are sculptural object that respond to the presence of the viewer. Crafted out of a variety of materials ranging from wood to photographic prints to digital images these motorized and mechanized elements work together to capture the viewer's movements, and in time delay presenting a trace of those activities.

Jeon Joonho's projected works are short animations that work in concert with each other. The drawn line in a number of the works is contrasted to the digital effects in others.
JEFF SHORE AND JON FISHER
September 6 - October 6
Clementine Gallery
623 West 27th street
NY NY 10001
www.clementine-gallery.com
Jeff Shore and Jon Fisher have been working together to create electro-mechanical installations that display the circuitry all over the wall as an abstract composition while carefully constructed boxes conceal the mechanized motion that are subsequently projected on the wall to tell a story that unfolds from piece to piece over 10 minute duration in the gallery. The space darkens, and an object begins to move a sound fills the gallery. It is hard to discern what is happen as the viewer oscillates between the screen and the objects. Often the movement can be detected other times it is hidden from view but viewers can imagine a small camera filing a model. Fisher and Shore's work is durational, narrative and sculptural simultaneously.
JUN NGUYEN-HATSUSHIBA

Lehmann Maupin

Using high and low technologies, in the darkened front gallery space Jun Nguyen-Hatsushiba creates a series of interrupted projections where shadows of objects capture disrupt the flow of the news.
ADAM HELMS
Hinterland
September 6 - October 6, 2007
Marianne Boesky Gallery
509 West 24th street
NY, NY 10011

This installation begins with a series of silkscreens where black masks have been screened over found images of historical and contemporary conflict. In these works images of torture and masked identity are given an equivalence through the juxtaposition of images that span different conflicts and different time periods.
In the back space are large drawing of mountainous landscapes that suggest the changes in the climate. These are juxtaposed with a taxidermy buffalo and a sculpted structure that resembles a remote outpost. The relationships between these works become evident as one looks back and between the pieces.
