Nå av da (Now by Then)<br />
10 feet x 10 feet x 20 feet<br />
Interactive video installation using custom software<br />
ARTIST STATEMENT<br />
The present is a product of the past. This idea is illustrated by an<br />
enchanted mirror that reflects the present as a multifacted image<br />
mosaic made from images captured in the past.<br />
The installation is continously evolving. The set of images used to<br />
construct the current experience is composed of earlier encounters.<br />
This makes every participant a contributor to future experiences.<br />

TECHNICAl STATEMENT<br />
The installation consists of a projector, a camera, a computer, and<br />
software that maintains the puzzled mosaic.<br />
When the software detects motion in the scene (monitored by the<br />
camera), an image is stored in a database and split into rectangular<br />
subimages. A list of the subimages that have changed since the last<br />
generated mosaic is created. The database is then asked for a list<br />
of full-scene images that correspond to the changed subimages. To<br />
further speed up queries, infrequently used images are periodically<br />
purged from the database.
