319 Scholes is a gallery / arts space located in Brooklyn, NY dedicated to "digital arts and experimentation." While they do host exhibitions of new media artists, they also have other programming such as festivals, workshops, performances, and lectures that also contribute to their support of digital and electronic media. Examples of media include sound art/installation and video, multi-media installations, kinetic sculpture, and "hacked" art/net art. In addition to new media artists, they also host performances by artists/musicians/sound artists - essentially, multimedia/new media artists.
Although there are artists listed on their site, it is not clear whether artists are represented by the gallery - it seems that the gallery exists with support from a collective of artists and community, so its exhibitions and programming are more accessible and public than one would expect of a typical gallery.
A recent exhibition includes a collaborative work with Nicolas Sassoon and Sara Ludy. Both are new media artists; Sassoon creates art exhibited on the internet, using retro gifs and colorful graphics. Ludy examines physical and virtual space through different digital capacities.
Last Saturday, 319 Scholes held "Art Hack Day" which showed a number of different artwork/installations that created interactions between artists and audiences, in a variety of mediums that were livestreamed to participatory audiences via the web. These included light installation based on a breathalyzer test; a "swim" browser powered by kinect and OpenNI; and a photobooth that produced live gifs.
