  5. SO….. IS IT DIGITAL?

  6. It isn’t. • Made on film, not in digital realm. • Has more sculptural aspect with the actually objects interacting. • Not about the digital aspect, focuses on the actual objects.

  7. It is. • In the 80’s, “film” was a “digital technology”, it’s the innovation now that says it’s not “digital” • Mainly viewed in digital form • This piece is not meant to be seen in situ like other sculptural works, made to be seen on film and a screen • http://vimeo.com/4581265

  8. Editing • Editing is a huge part of it • Trash bag • Foam • Time lapse • Do not see everything at once

  9. Visible World 2003 • Housed at Tate • Digital

  10. Time based nature • The whole thought is the time • How would it be the same if not timing? • How does that affect it digitally?
