Bud's Dream is an installation that presents two planes across a hallway, one made of swirling video
feedback, the other of mechanical fingers pressing through a frame of flexible fabric. The two planes
are connected through infrared lights on the tips of the mechanical fingers and a small camera on the
video plane in a manner that mimics dragging one's fingers through a pond full of swirling pixel soup. Viewers disturb and distort this process by shadowing the signals between the two planes.
The piece presents boundaries that are pushed against and poked through in ways that reveal hidden universes beyond these perceived borders in space and material.
This is an in-progress page where I will post tests and samples of the piece as it develops.
