No Signal (2009)


 
Running time: 4:35
Native format: Quicktime MOV
 

A studio experiment in which I turn on a consumer-grade DLP projector without connecting it to any external source, thus prompting the device’s default ‘No signal’ message. I wave my hand through the projected message, first to mimic a shutter, then much faster, deconstructing the text into a rainbow blur.
