When You Don’t See It, It’s Everywhere.

 

In this work, I combine the digital media with installation in order to represent how the internet is connecting us in a concrete form.

The video, consists of 12 different moving image shot at the same moment in different time zones and different places, visualizes how internet functions as a heterotopia that, according to Foucault, juxtaposes “in a single real place several spaces, several sites that are in themselves incompatible” by superimposing the installed space and the space of the videos.

I used projector and disco ball to create a starry sky that allows the people that I love to be in the same space with me. The video that was projected onto the disco ball consisted of 12 clips from my family, my friends and me. They were token in the same moment but in different time zone so that I had maybe revealed the truth within that 30 seconds a little bit more.

The video

that was projected onto the disco ball consisted of 12 clips from my family, my friends and me. They were token in the same moment but in different time zone, which builds up the world subjective to me that is sectioned off from the reality but still being within it. They are being put into the same space coexisting but developing on their own.

 
 
 
 
 

The blink

of the small frames in a way of mimicking the procedure of data transporting.

We are so used to the existence of the internet that we becoming numb by the constancy. The only way to perceive the existence of the internet is from the frequently shifting between having it here and not having it here. The video is a representation of the course from not having the internet to fully having the internet. Also the soundtrack is extracted from all the video clip and builds up from individual sounds into a white noise. When you no longer seeing the blink, you are submerged into the region that is fully covered by the internet. It is at this time, the internet disappears into everywhere.
