Cinema City | Near Future Laboratory

In the second proposal, Skynet — an extraterrestrial orbital satellite platform — finds QR codes in the landscape of earth. The QR codes embed stories and films that the satellites share with one another. Over time, as they see the same films over and over again and become bored — they begin to look for QR codes elsewhere, perhaps interpreting barcode-like structures in the landscape at different wavelengths — for instance an infrared folliage rendering may appear to contain QR codes. They seek out new films in this way, perhaps even instructing terrestrial machines, such as the cranes at loading docks or tractors in large farm fields, to construct new QR codes containing new cinema and stories.

Cranes writing stories embedded in QR codes for satellites will occupy my thoughts all day.

Tara Donovan is without a doubt one of my favorite artists.

Her Pins series at Pace Gallery is nearly made just for me. Gradients tediously constructed from the density of the heads of straight pins stuck in giant board. I’m in love.
