This site displays the live output from a remote webcam
that uploads its images to the internet. The software that drives the camera
is scheduled to be active each day of this exhibition.
This software is configured to respond to changes in motion that are detected by comparing
each new image to one previously saved. When there is a significant
difference, the image is uploaded to the site. The web site refreshes itself every 15 seconds,
displaying any updated images.
The camera looks through both interior and exterior spaces,
dividing the composition into several planes. These planes are altered
by the interplay of technological and natural elements including
motion, wind, natural light, diffusion, synchronicity,
digital manipulation, and optical magnification.
The piece itself is essentially intended to be a time-based electronic painting,
changing and updating itself in response to various forces.
