Time is an interactive installation in which a participants physical
motion in the installation space fragments time in a stored video
clip. A participant's movement in the space is tracked by an overhead
video camera. As the participant moves closer to the projection screen
they push deeper into time - but only in the area of the screen directly
in front of them. As they move away the fragmented image heals in
their wake - like a pond returning to stillness. In the Liquid Time installation, the interface of one"s body - which can only exist in
one place, at one time - is the means to create a space in which multiple
times and perspectives coexist. The resulting imagery can be described
as video cubism.
Liquid Time - Tokyo manipulates video footage from a variety of sites in Tokyo where people are moving in transit. Every few minutes the piece cycles through a different video clip, allowing viewers to keep exploring and moving through time in the various sites.
