I mean, your short story in water and the beach writing was so out of this world and brilliant that I wonder if you could reach that level consistanty.
Let's see some of the stuff you've been wasting your life on.
fair enough. a few "completed" works.
-----------
solitude.
the entire work is illuminated by one light which passes through a hole cut through the top of the cabinet to create an illuminated window in its shadow. the cabinet is turned to create the shape of a home on the wall.
on the floor is a text entitled solitude which is written entirely with sand.
when the viewer enters the room they must choose whether or not to walk across the writing in order to read the entire work.
--------
gravity.
12 tanks. 12 fish. each tank is equipped with a spicket which is slowly dripping the water into tin buckets beneath. the drops echo through the space creating random patterns.
---------
self portrait as a mouse.
(inspired by the myth of sysiphus.)
the mouse is housed in an enclosed wheel which connected to an infra-red sensor which detects movement and sends signal to a dimmer switch which contols the light in the projector.
when the mouse is still, the room is dark. as he begins to move the light in the projector begins to illuminate...the faster that he runs, the brighter the light gets and the brighter the image on the screen between them as he slows the light dims again.
the image is of a horizon line and two vanishing points.
