C to C: Several Centuries After the Double Slit Experiment


Rental Format(s): 16mm film

The piece is a meditation on waves and particles, sound and light, and the history of science
and metaphysics, cinematic space, and America.

Installation:
Ocean waves projected onto rectangular satin flags supported on C stands. The flags, usually
black and used to block light, here are sewn with white reflective material, and are arranged in
multiple planes on the apron of a theatre. The projection screen curtain is left open only a slit, a
nod to Thomas Young's Double Slit Experiment. The installation's duration is dictated by
Michael Snow's film Wavelength, playing concurrently at the rear of the theater, the soundtrack
of which is heard along with C notes played live on piano.

Installation requirements:
16mm film, C stands, gobo arms, cine flags, sandbags, live piano
