Weidenaar, Reynold (Henry)

(b East Grand Rapids, MI, 25 Sept 1945). American composer, film maker and video artist. He worked with Moog at the Independent Electronic Music Centre in Trumansburg, New York (1965–9) and studied composition at the Cleveland Institute with Erb (BMus 1973) and at New York University with Fennelly (MA 1980, PhD 1989). His earliest awards include first prize in the Sonavera International Tape Music Competition (New York, 1979). Weidenaar has received widespread recognition in the USA and abroad for his films and videotapes, which integrate variations of texture and colour developed parallel to analogue tape music. His Love of Line, of Light and Shadow: the Brooklyn Bridge (1982, for clarinet and stereo and colour video), realized for the centenary of the Brooklyn Bridge, was chosen for inclusion in the Eastman School’s International Computer Music Conference (1983) and the second annual New York City Experimental Video and Film Festival. He has received the Special Distinction Award from the Tokyo Video Festival (1987) and a gold from the International Communication Film & Video Festival (1996). He was appointed an assistant professor of film and television at New York University (1986–93) and has been artist-in-residence at the center for computer music at Brooklyn College, CUNY (1983–4). In 1993 he became assistant professor of communication at William Paterson University in Wayne, New Jersey. Most of Weidenaar’s work involves magnetic audiotape, film or videotape. The Tinsel Chicken Coop, for your Usual Magnetic Tape (1973) and Wiener, your Usual Magnetic Sequel (1974) use vast arrays of electronic, vocal, and acoustic resources. The Wavelines series (1978–9) integrates electronic tape and 16 mm colour film images as does Pathways III (1980). Since 1985, his works have consistently involved the use of videotape, very often in conjunction with solo acoustic instruments, as in Swing Bridge (1997) for clarinet and videotape.
