Counter Balance is a monthly, multi-format showcase, dedicated to expanding the confines of the film screening to include writing, sound, theater and intermedia.

Jacob Ciocci is a founding member of the Paper Rad art collective and the performance group Extreme Animals. Jacob’s work is concerned with the relationship between popular culture, popular technology, and collective experience. In his videos, installations and performances, the cultural symbols of our time, both the popular and the obscure, both the contemporary and the recently forgotten confront one another and the viewer on a visceral, emotional, and experiential level. He has performed and exhibited at a variety of venues including the New Museum and MOMA in New York, Tate Britain. Recent activity includes a comprehensive screening of his video work at Anthology Film Archives and an exhibit Cooper Cole Gallery in Toronto.
