Time is both an individual and universal experience. It is seemingly present but tangibly absent. While in Berlin, my perception of time shifted: days felt longer and time seemed to slow down. This piece is the culmination of my research and visual experiments throughout my stay in Berlin. It is presented on a vertical scroll that moves continuously to reflect the nature of time: we can not seem to ever stop it or have it stand still for us.
Learning Outcomes:
This was my first large-scale speculative and personal project — with a topic I felt personally fascinated by. Learning to self-direct, is a valuable skill I came out of this project with. Technically speaking, I also learned to work with arduino motors, install large scale prints to modeled frames, and overcome technical hurdles to make my dream of a moving scroll come to life.
