Cory Arcangel's new exhibit at the Whitney Museum — Cory Arcangel: Pro Tools — is a home-coming of sorts. His break-out piece Super Mario Clouds was included in the Whitney Biennial 2004. While hacks and re-appropriations of old computer systems like Nintendo and Atari are Arcangel's preferred method of work, his new exhibition draws from a variety of mediums including video games, kinetic sculpture, and pen plotter drawings using tools that incorporate professional technologies with a taste for old-school video aesthetics. The centerpiece? A selection of bowling video games (from the late 70s thru the 2000s) – hacked to throw only gutter balls.
