#cƐ:loudym:3dia by n@p_t1m :3 (Aaron Peleaz, Phin Nguyen, and Noe Naranjo Arias) Light, Space, Performance @ Retro Tech Night at the San Jose Museum Of Art March 19, 2026 — Technical craft of the past dawns on the future of spectacle and artifice. Mutating its media into forms — ungodly and utterly cruel, to its inhabitants; below the cloud. Underneath it, lay fraught the bones of progress — broken open :: by digital castration and a fascination for nostalgia. The light of projection is casted —-> open into the /\/\useum, piercing a wound of m:3rcy, 𐎘serenity, and sh@me . 🦠✳️🦠 Thank you for the tremendous support and encouragement from Robin Treen, Kimo Anderson, James Morgan, Craig Hobbs, and Rhonda Holberton.

CADRE CLIPPER: The Mobile Show April 11, 2026 Shown at SJMA & the SJSU Art Building A site-specific interactive installation that invited the public to be a part of an investigation of the past 40 years of CADRE New Media Laboratory’s history. Created by artists Danny Dao, Daria Orlova, Nabeeha Ahsan, & Noe Naranjo Arias. The time-traveling laboratory of the CADRE CLIPPER crashed due to a sudden time storm that halted its investigation into the deep history of CADRE Media Lab. Luckily, it landed at CADRE 40, where plenty of experts like past alumni, current faculty, students, & friends were able to help add to the CLIPPER’s work. Visitors were invited to write messages in invisible ink amongst the printed & projected ephemera and explore what others had shared with blacklight flashlights. Projections collaged together interviews, transit lines, live video feed, recordings of clouds, & the reimagined CADRE Cube; drifting to the future. Together, these connected various events, performances, & notable moments spanning the Laboratory’s 40 years of history. Created in collaboration with the @cadrealum Aldo Mora-Reyna, Andre Zambrana, Emily Bright, James Morgan, Jason Challas, Kyungwha Lee, Ky Han Ly, Nicolas Zorzi, Steve Durie, & Sunshine Mathews Mora-Reyna Thank you to all alumni who submitted ephemera and materials. With assistance from @cadre.so and @cadrealum Alisha Karmacharya, Blair Rich, Brandon Vuong, Bryan Ko, Cassandra Santander, Hannah Fu, Jupiter Kasler, Khoa Nguyen, Nhat Minh Le, Sophia Nguyen, & Rhyme Balatbat  Lab Assistants: @cadre.so Akari Che, Brianna Rivera-Alvarez, Ethan Kamigaki, Jared Langner, Jennifer Low, & Lyndon Livingston Additional volunteers: Casper Wilson, Maleah Armenta, & Ray Palomino Special thanks to Professors Joel Slayton & Steve Durie, who made this possible and were our support throughout this project’s creation. Thank you to the SJSU Art and Art History Department for its support & funding for the truck, & to the Visual Resource Library & Professor G. Craig Hobbs for providing the equipment. Thank you to the San Jose Museum of Art & the City of San Jose for allowing us to install at the CADRE 40 Symposium.

✨ FREE THROW PROCESS LOG ✨ featuring the VIDEO PROJECTION MAPPING TEAM 🏀✨🎥 [PART 1] Our video projection mapping team’s first test shoot at the SAP Center ✨ marks the beginning of projecting directly onto metallic, absorbent, and reflective surfaces throughout the architecture. These early tests are about seeing how different materials take in light, bend it, and reflect it back. Each surface reveals new textures, distortions, and shifts in intensity that you wouldn’t expect at first glance. Vivid, immersive, and full of potential just like them! ✨〰️✨ @sanjosesports @sjculture @sjsu Event pages: shkd.us/uDnTWliy shkd.us/7zEXPP5I 📸:@grill0101 —————————— #FreeThrowSJ2026 #cadre40 #sjsudma #projectionmapping

Noe Through the Eyes of Kimo • Now diva,,,, when the wig is put on, the fabulous emotions that you exhibit is transcendent of any lived experience. Working woman, woman who works, working as a woman, the multitudes. It brings me joy reflecting on these images and knowing we were able to generate this time stamp of your life. Capturing your momentum. Keep it up mama; bitches that shit. Projection mapping as an act of resistance. Let it shine mama!!!!!!

#TUCKED By n@p_t1m3 (Noe Naranjo Arias, Aaron Peleaz, Phin Nguyen) Watercolor paper, Light, Mirrors, Acrylic, Space 360 x 360 inches ( or however big the space in your heart is) 2025 ___________________ As part of an spatial installation at @annodominigallery for the Art Of Zines Exhibition. December 5, 2025 — January 17, 2026 Arising from the folds are our memories stored and displayed. This installation proposes the idea of holding memory within the spectacle of light. Displaying it though the traditional storytelling format of zine publishing. Light is used to illuminate the natural environment of the space, drawing upon its source from the same illumination we feel gazing at our phones, glaring into the bolts of sun hitting the water, as well as that radiance that we wait to illuminate. The source of light is used to collage together a collection of the lives of the collective. Unfolding into stories, through digital art work, analog craft, and spacial performance. Thank you to all the critical support, mentorship and perseverance from Rhonda Holberton, James Morgan, Cherri Lakey, Brian Eder, Bob Rose, Andrew Blanton, and Craig Hobbs.

but, what if i flop!?

some of last week, days before that, the end of 2025, whats coming and today

but all of these moments are pivotal to me. from doing my first solo exhibition #FFAFE, upgrading my fish tank, moving residencies 🙀, blasting out pixels #napt1m3 ,NEVER KNOWING WHAT IM DOING BUT I KEPT TRYING!, projecting myself to embarrassment, losing one of my cats to a hit and run, sweating out the lime, eating lots of sushi, kicking myself into holes, doing 2 other group exhibitions, attempts to restructure time, feeling weird and so alone, constantly pulsing and feeling my brain finally start to bulge into shape. brain hurty but thats the cost of time. i spent a lot of time trying to sketch a new version of myself after gazing away from my skyscraper lifestyle and conveyor belt deadlines. the dissolution of Noe Naranjo LLC. 2025 brought about such freedom and autonomy and im really happy with whats emerging. the horizon for 2026 is a very neon orange hue, almost blinding with a contrast of maroon, shifting to a dark purple + pitch black hues at the tip of y 90 degree axis. the clouds on the horizon offer the whisper of pearls. — 2025 was a dire situation… no shade but that was just a little too fierce for me!!!!! honestly? idk how to summize all of it. i gotta dance #harder & love more fiercely :3 i also really wanna go swimming more this year. 25 is the new 0 years old. #ImOnlyGettingStarted
