Media artist Ben Rubin's piece Terminal 8 at the South Street Seaport Museum juxtaposes the current port of New York—JFK Airport—in the historic rooms of the old port: the Seaport. Filming the comings and goings at JFK Airport in January 2011, Terminal 8 gives a window into our present day concept of what it means to be "at port."

Rubin's other public works include Moveable Type (2007) and Listening Post (2002); he is currently working on a new site-specific piece for the Public Theater called Shakespeare Machine. Join Ben as he discusses his inspirations, tools and challenges in presenting abstract concepts in film, sound, and installation format.
