A Point Just Passed Build

March 5th, 2013

All put back together again

Another case build for the video artist Gabriel Barcia-Colombo. This time for his piece A Point Just Passed.

In Gabe’s words: “A time card punch clock with a video person projected into a dome on top. As the viewer punches the time cards, the person gets older based on time punch increments. At the last punch the dome goes dark and is not to be reset until the next day. Viewers virtually erase the youth of the person through the passage of time. With each punch the memory of one’s childhood is further erased from the dome. It is possible that some viewers may never experience the full length of the piece.”
