Galactic Whispers Part 3 - The Meteor

Housed within the glass walls of Long Island University's Humanities Gallery hovers a suspended form, resembling a meteor. The meteor is active from the inside, containing moving images, light, and texture. Viewers approach and peer into portholes, as they see and are seen. Certain portholes activate live feed video signals, which are displayed elsewhere in the space. Other portholes record and replay messages viewers have left behind, altering the soundscape in the gallery. Like a palimpsest, the recorded audio/video interactions build and form new content, continually rewriting information throughout the duration of the show. Rather than the suffocating scale of large commercial or bureaucratic interests, we are preserving stories from the scale of small group interactions for new perspectives on social action.
