define realtime

2008

The video installation "define realtime" is a realtime subtraction of a moving image from its static background. The moving image is taken from a nearby busstop, which is functional in its approach to time (waiting for..). The result is a poetic record of changes taking place in the environment. It also brought up the issue of uncontrolled image flow, streamed via webcams whose number in our surrounding is systematically growing.
