Les LeVeque is an artist based in New York who works with digital and analog electronic technology. His work includes single and multi-channel videos and video/computer-based installations. LeVeque's work uses algorithmic structures, statistically distributed elements, experimentation with the boundaries of interfaces, and provides new views of existing narratives. In 2014 he is a member of the faculty and co-chair of Film and Video at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts, Bard College.




Early life and education


LeVeque holds an MFA from Syracuse University with a concentration in Video.




Experiential video narratives


In 2014, Les LeVeque's creations are videos which combine and electronically modify appropriated media and filmed social situations to provoke physical, intellectual and emotional response from the viewers. LeVeque employs, in his work, algorithms and computer interface mixed with classical Hollywood films, appropriations of political broadcasts and advertisements, using new technology to provide an alternative view of cinema and to highlight political issues regarding media. The algorithms produce a visual experience that is not present in the original films.
