Digital traces

Here are digital time-lapse captures taken from within the EV building of Concordia University. 

What we inevitably see is how a slowed down digital capture exposes the digital process. What is qualitative and continuous in analog equipment becomes sequential, precise and divisible in the digital. Movement can be captured, but only in a precise, yet abstract way. We don't get the faint, blurry trace that we have come to expect from time-lapse photography. What we get is a the precise information of that existed in that pixel position at that particular time. 

Moving Bodies are transformed into information - numbers to be precise -  and only those things that appear immobile allow themselves to be understood.
