Artifacts of Computation - Corpus Increbresco Vicissitudo
Video Installation
Artifacts of Computation is intended as a meditative piece exploringideas of the body in a world increasingly defined by science, code andideas of mutability. The piece does not attempt to make specificstatements so much as create a space for the contemplation of theseideas while defining the viewer visually by illuminating them in theprojection of an endless stream of genetic code.
An 8' x 8' foot sheet of glass, etched with with duplicated images of in utero infants is illuminated by scrolling genetic coding projected from behind the installation and across the walls of the gallery, objects and viewers of the piece. Nine lab vessels filled with wax are heated to liquid by small flames emanating from bunsen burners welded into to a steel pipe.. Etching on each vessel displays distorted code through the heated wax.
