Liquid Time - Tokyo

Liquid Time is an interactive installation in which a participants physical motion in the installation space fragments time in a stored video clip. A participant's movement in the space is tracked by an overhead video camera. As the participant moves closer to the projection screen they push deeper into time - but only in the area of the screen directly in front of them. As they move away the fragmented image heals in their wake - like a pond returning to stillness. In the Liquid Time installation, the interface of one"s body - which can only exist in one place, at one time - is the means to create a space in which multiple times and perspectives coexist. The resulting imagery can be described as video cubism.

Liquid Time - Tokyo manipulates video footage from a variety of sites in Tokyo where people are moving in transit. Every few minutes the piece cycles through a different video clip, allowing viewers to keep exploring and moving through time in the various sites.

If you would like to commission footage of a particular location, please contact us for further details.
