Bruce McClure is a licensed architect living in Brooklyn. In 1994 he began experimenting with metronomes and stroboscopes and started using 16mm film projectors threaded with patterned film strips to lay out timed intervals of light and optically generated sound signals. Since 1995 his film and live projector performances have been exhibited at numerous venues and festivals around the world., including: Rotterdam International Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival, New York Film Festival’s Views of the Avant-Garde, Whitney Biennial, Walker Art Center, and Wexner Center for the Arts. In 2011 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. In 2015 McClure was subject to a 8-program, partial retrospective at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. “I don’t use optical printers. I don’t need a camera. I don’t need lights. I don’t need actors or actresses. I don’t need a producer. I don’t need a sound man.” (Bruce McClure)
