| description | concept & references | prototype | conclusion | “Mulholland
Drive” is a light installation that translates the movement
across a topology as two beams of light. Instead of direct human interaction,
the work takes the sensed data (tilt, sound, and GPS) of traversing
an environment and recreates the experience through angles, light,
and sound. We are interested in the passive interactivity of the process—a
simple drive along a dynamic highway is automatically read by new
media sensor technologies and recreated into an aesthetic experience.
With no screen, picture, or perspective, the artwork emphasizes the
spatial quality of light…it is cinematic projection without
an image. Like cinema, direct data is captured, then edited, and shaped.
However, here the environment directly defines the experience, using
the geography computationally. “Mulholland Drive” considers
how suddenly the rhythms, patterns, and random chance of the environment
can be sensed through new media technologies and used to create new
forms of visual experience. |
