Ambient Transmissions
Andrew Lucia and Matthew Lake
Ambient transmission explores the relationship between an event and the perception of the event. In this case the wall becomes the filter between events on either side of its boundary. This active wall receives information from one side and transfers it through to the other. Although this information is not allowed to pass without distortion. The information received can undergo significant transformation of both space and duration from its original location and time.
Light, or lack there of, instigates an activation of lights embedded within the wall. The shadow of a passerby, a cloud, or daily light fluctuations trigger response of the wall. The trace of this ambient event is then transferred through the threshold of the wall. Simultaneously, multiple lenses transmit distorted visual confirmation of events beyond the wall’s surface, further blurring the idea of what it is that actually constitutes an original event and its visual perception.
