Installation. Hampshire College. 2011.

"This project intends to produce a widely deployable, continuously adaptive and evolving memorial/monument capable of establishing a dialogue between historic facts/events and the indeterminable changes in the places, events and perceptions of the global community. It will attempt to simultaneously chart global historic memory and momentary events, crafting a cohesive visual image of This Moment. It is intended that the source data, the production language and the evolving artwork paint a picture/space of the present that transcends the boundaries of physical space and place. It is intended that one loses a sense of “place” or national identity, instead becomes a participatory witness of a global space."

"This project attempts to creatively present (visualize) data as a “siteless” interface between place, memory (historic and momentary) and future incidents to recognize collective loss and create global witnesses through an evolving monument to This Moment."
