Future Falls City

Future Falls City, 2013

One Channel Video,

Future Falls City was inspired by the unseen world of colliding particles being studied at CERN the European Organization for Nuclear Research, where "physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe – the fundamental particles and ... the fundamental laws of nature." I wanted to imagine what kind structure they will discover and as art critic Zoe Strecker summarized in a review of the piece:

"The future is, after all, an imaginary projection built from what we already know..."

everything for nothing, nothing for everything

2010 created - installed 2016 - 2017 at the Legacy Trail,

(5) - 2'x 12' nylon flags with dye sublimation prints of bar codes mounted on 50'- 0" poles, Legacy Trail Public Art Project, Lexington, KY. The first installation on a flag pole was at the Lexington Art League, the Loudon House grounds in 2010.

The orginal barcode generating phrases I was going to use for this project employed economic theory phrases, ideas, from various sources were censored. Even though the words/phrases would not have been visible, only the barcodes, I was required to create new phrases like: 'bluegrass (poa pratensis)' which is not a native species to Kentucky and other phrases relating to Kentucky like: 'a heaven of a place', 'La Troienne (equus)', 'University of Kentucky' and 'Kentucky'.

They had the graphic designer at the print shop generate the actual barcodes for my flags instead of using my digital files.
