There are two different kinds of moving image, on top and on bottom. They looks like Water flows or spaces filled with liquid. Both of them have place, date and time stamp at its corner. One of them changes it’s flow speed and the other do its flow direction. Both of them are looped. at a corner of the room, 5 still images mounted on specially made metal flames, gathered. Each of them present different type of trees with its own direction. A black and white image present a planet covers it’s entire ceiling.
I tempolalrily say, It is not the meaning but the gallanty of their feeling is legible that people need for accepting their own life. Then I ask what is what I see. What is what makes me give attention.
Me who across the space and trees which represent directions were there. Photos as art objects usually represent something with emphasizing on its sensuality and are put on wall with flame just like paintings are done. But here, each of them are located As a time-space by mounting it as an 2 dementional data on surface of a sheet, to the flame which has 3 axes and each of them represent a dimension, and located on the ground, with a pice of a paper which shows the record of its shuttered time and place. Then what I have is an direction(circle) and a blured image of a space with levels.
The moving image present an amount rocking and cause small waves. It may make viewers awed. Viewer may understand the mechanism of the image as keeping a physic generates a pattern and a direction, at the same time they may find they are feeling nice and smooth.
After my carefully consideration of items, couple of factors appear. Speed and directions. For one side, I arranged speed and looped to close it. For the other, I arranged directions and looped to close it. The amount of my moving, the amount of time passed, and the amount of energy consumed are all same. For this image, the time reversing looks same with refrecting direction. Also reduced speed image looks generation of waves taking more time.
The image taken by an unmanned satellite draws accurate circles and graded light. It’s explicit darkness and wideness scares me. It reminds me that the word “the world” includes the outer space of the earth. Though the presenting space is it which i can’t see by myself, I’m sure that it is continuous from here. The continuity might awe the viewer and might make them be sure that this world exists just like the outer space exists.

経験をデータや概念や象徴へと近似/昇華せず、多量の視覚と感覚と少量の言語(論理)を介して、経験の情報量をなまのままに扱う、”サイエンスとアートの間”での反省と構築を試みている。このことは、大きく2つの意義があると考えたい。自然科学という方法が根源的に達成し得ない領域を耕すことに貢献できるかもしれない。さらに、言語にのみ依存しない特性を活かし、人文/社会科学では根源的に達成し得ない領域を耕すことに貢献できるかもしれない。あるいは、多量の視覚と感覚と少量の言語で自然科学の果たした発見を”語り直す”ことができるのかもしれない。
