Earth Beamer II



Installation. Moss, water, slide projectors, arduino.
2022


Two slide projectors become microscopes that magnify and project a series of 24 seemingly still images onto the same surface. Instead of photographs, each slide frame contains a moss herbarium: a living, moist and changing micro-ecosystem. The superimposition of images creates new plant motifs, similar to a double exposure. This "live projection" is looped at 24 seconds per image, in contrast to the standard 24 frames per second of motion pictures.
