artist statement

The ideas leading to my current body of work incorporate several concepts that I have been researching for a number of years.  What is included in the gallery involves sound converted video. Individual video frames are converted to sound files and back through algorithmic code. This conversion process involves concepts such as abundance, collection, organization, reconfiguration, juxtaposition and aesthetic elevation.  Recorded video and sound are processed in real time throughout the installation. This data is processed then projected back onto the space. The resulting imagery is subject to change by viewer interaction and site specificity.

"As collage technique replaced oil paint, the cathode ray tube will replace the canvas. Someday artists will work with capacitors, resistors, and semiconductors as they work today with brushes, violins and junk. There are 4,000,000 dots per second on one television screen, just think of the variety of images you can get. It's so cool. It's like going to the moon."
