PROJECT
SUMMARY
Marked
as a launching event for the synth/ops research group, 'Candle'
is a not only a meditation on the poetics of the candle and
the flickering light but also becomes a metaphorical meditation
on the poetics and possibilities of network art.
A
Candle situated at Ryerson university is placed in front of
a speaker. A drummer in England beats a drum and transmits the
audio over the internet to Ryerson University. The audio of
the drum is played through the speaker beside the candle. As
the drum beats the candle flickers to its base. The video is
transmitted back to England and projected on a wall behind the
drummer.
Launched
at Ryerson University, Toronto November 2001.
