i see you [2013, 2015]

 

What would your television do if it were watching you, as you were watching it? This installation is a television capable of capturing images and remixing them with it’s own. Images are altered, affected and combined. The permutations are controlled and triggered by the movements of the person standing in front of it. 

 

Inspired by the work of Nam June Paik, this piece was conceived as an experiment in Live Interactive Cinema on a small screen, originally commissioned by the Smithsonian as part of their Nam June Paik exhibit and later shown as part of the 53rd Annual Ann Arbor Film Festival.
