visualizing architectural memory
February 13th, 2007 by Monkey
a large-scale interactive work for the entrance of One Arts Plaza, Dallas, as an exploration in the creation of memory & the idea of reality as perception. 2 high definition cameras record the edifice’s lobby activity, on a daily basis, during a minimum of 8 years. according to specific chance operations, segments of the footage are selected & displayed on two 9 x 9 foot video walls in 4 overlapping layers: 1 from the last 2 minutes & 3 from a distant time period. while standing between the 2 screens, viewers will perceive themselves along with “visual memories” of that place.
