Body Speed Movement Experiment (Part of a Series: The Speed of Drawing Project)
— rough layout of the installation — prototype
— installation detail
This project is part of a series of drawings examining and experimenting with the notion of speed from 6 different (and multiple) perspectives. The image was made as a prototype, and this will be produced in a larger scale for the 2009 MADT Festival.
This project is an examination of sport as body movement with the added characteristics of competition (sympathy/antipathy) and game (pleasure/anxiety). The spiral sculpture part on the floor is reminiscent of body organs. Water and oil in the tubes are immiscible and create different layers, but when the participant steps on the spiral organ and jumps, the fluid mixture pumps through the network of tubes; if the participant applies considerable effort the water and oil will eventually be mixed. This mixed red liquid line will denote how much activity participant has expended, and this will give the participant encouragement to try to make it higher, which continues the play of desire and exhaustion.

The work experiments with human psychological sense assumptions about reality through tactile/physical human sensing (and/or perception). I am interested in time and space; mixed, inconsistent, non-linear, and in loops of time and space, in span/spam, in memory, and in multiple mixed realities. Mixed time and space, mixed bodies – objects (interfaces), perceptions, and memories, again. I want to offer an experience in which the participant may perceive remixed time and space, and is thus situated in the awareness of virtual/real (un)realities. Our existence is neither real nor reality (‘what actually happened’) but beingmay be both (localized) real (I – body, objecthood, or interface) and reality (I – mind, subjectivity, or concept) (‘what happened for the perceiver’, a self-defining reduction of reality).
