I've been thinking alot about slow motion projection over the space of hours, there's an ethereal and compelling quality to things that have been slowed down. I'm especially drawn to the idea of something that's moving so slowly that it appears to be a still image.
this quality could be very useful in a public environment, and a challenge...how do you get people to slow down long enough to notice a gentle mesmeric quality of change? does it matter if they realise what is happening? can it just operate as a kind of reward for those people in less of a hurry to arrive somewhere that they actually see their surroundings?
Yeah, that and the fact that people returning to the space will be met with a different image. I'd really like to perhaps have some footage that's incredibly violent, choatic and/or swift so it's all the more majestic. Perhaps destroying something, feeding into that kind of debate with the angst of the youths that occupy that area
