M2
In the field of tension between surveilance and self-fashioning.
The spectator is portayed and included in the reception of the electronic scrap machine M2. It ranges from involuntary surveillance to the possibility of an exhibitionistic self-fashioning.
M2 illustrates in the form of projection the room and the spectators around it. The machine samples the immediate surroundings by means of a slow movement in 360 degrees and shows the captured in a distorted fashion on the wall.
The recipient is forced to discover himself as part of a volatile artistic situation in "realtime".
