My goal is to put the fuck buttons in stores for sale with the hope that in the future, the project will be able to support itself. Experimental sales have been conducted in Soho (London), Gay Pride Parade, and Holw Festival in NYC with great results.
7. Thinking Rock (more information)
L.E.D. signs, card-board, plaster, chicken wire
3’ x 5’ x 2’
2005
Description: This sculpture utilizes L.E.Ds. signs which use
widely on buses and taxis. Inside the thought bubble are 2 L.E.Ds that run texts
written for a specific location. Writers are invited to write texts for the
sculpture so its text will be updated regularly. In this sculpture, the fake
rock is thinking about rock’s lifespan, about Magritte’s painting
of the pipe. It contemplates that if it were a real rock, it would have been
able to witness the first day of American history when the Indians and buffalo
roamed the land, stampede, sat and peed on it. The fake rock goes on to tell
events in its history and what it has seen in its specific surrounding. The
text’s content is limited by only a writer’s imagination. This is
one of a few sculptures utilizing L.E.D. I made.
10. The Dizi-Clock
(sample file)
Wall size, size variable
Quick Time video files, video projector, MAC computer
2004
Description: In this project, I recreated an abstract digital
clock on the video screen. After tapping a normal clock for twelve hours, I
captured the tapes’ content into a computer and save them as a Quick Time
format files. Then I reduced the Quick Time file to 90 x 60 pixel screen ratio.
The final result when being projected on a big wall is a mesmerizing image of
a clock that resembled an abstract painting. Each time the hands moves, one
or more pixels on the screen shift. That creates a video that tells time, a
representation of a clock that resembles a pixilated video/painting. Each second
on the screen is a unique frame in a 12 hours video loop. Below is a sample
of two consecutive frames of the movie.
