for a non-accelerating observer
The objects in this series contain LCD screens of differing resolutions and sizes that are displaying videos from the dIRe Warming Bouquets and dIRe Warming Lily Bouquets series and rolling text videos from the Algorithms for Indeterminacy series.
dIRe Warming (Lily) Bouquets series are durational projects where bouquets of Lilys or Anemones are exposed to varying amounts of near-infrared radiation, that portion of radiation that is just beyond the visible spectrum. The effects of this extended direct infrared exposure, dIRe, are documented with thermal video cameras. The video in these pieces consist of that documentation accelerated.
Algorithms for Indeterminacy is a generative text project. Imagining a relation between two, three or four specific words then submitting those words to an algorithm that generates a combined word list of their synonyms and/or antonyms.
