because I don’t have my sketchbook handy, notes for me.
wormhole which autonomously opens and records imagery, upon interfacing it randomly selects a recorded clip. autonomy is controlled by organic variable, something truly random. ie wind/rain
I see the world through lenses, of both the prescribed and the imagined type. This raw fascination with the ability to control (or lack thereof) one’s vantage point upon a precious object, slowly building and manipulating your relationship with a mundane bundle of matter. Perhaps this is deep-seated in years of watching contemporary cinema, or the unnecessarily long list of books on quantum theory checked out in my name at your local library. In any case, I see the optical aids that I carry on my head and in my head as a tapped resource that can be compiled upon itself in such a way that it can again become untapped. And this untapped stream of data can be seen all at once from every angle, producing a completely new form.
I really love interpreting motion data from the most mundane sources and seeing these beautiful forms take shape. I’d like to form these shapes in sheet metal, and paint them with automotive paint. On a very small scale however, maybe each of these pieces would be 4–5 inches tall. Each piece is about 4 seconds of motion capture.
Currently on its way to being prototyped by shooting lasers into a liquid bath. Photos soon.
