It was a time crunch and I had to think fast. My logical side of the brain was still sleeping, the alarm clock had not registered in that sector. I realized that I wanted to take the ideas that had manifested out of the "Altered Book" and propel them forward to some form of realization. The idea of having an installation, provoked a solid vision of what this could be.
Man and Machine
I imagined a glass elevator going up three stories to a "computer brain". As participants would proceed upwards, there would be light responses that they could view from the elevator. A maze-like structure would constitute tunnels that would be going in, around, and through the "brain" emerging into one tunnel of an array of six different dome-like rooms. Each of the rooms would be different, but have the same feel to them. Visual projections, industrial sculptural forms, print on metal, and sound would constitute some of the materials in each of the rooms. Some form of viewer engagement would be considered in each space and to initiate this concept, the participants would have to put on surgical masks, hats and booties just as they would have to do if they were entering a silicon chip manufacturing plant.
I'm just waiting for a grant now.
