| WORKS IN PROGRESS BY GERALD O'CONNELL |
|
This section of the the gallery space is devoted to long term projects. TOKYO STORY RUSHES AND OUT-TAKES Tokyo Story is an ambitious attempt to exploit the WebArt medium. The first version was exhibited in New York in September 1998 as part of the R2001 'Country Without Borders' group exhibition. Since then it has grown in length and complexity. As my own psychological map of the city, I cannot predict when it might ever be considered complete... The full work uses meta/refresh tags in order to run continuously. Here I merely present occasional frames and fragments as the work progresses... Tokyo Story is calibrated for IE4, 800x600, Fullscreen setting. Excerpt One Excerpt Two Excerpt Three A new window will be opened for each of the above pieces. This should be maximised and then set to Full Screen. Cancel the window to return to this page. 'FLUX AETERNA' was started in 1990 and continues to grow, like a crystal, according to its own laws and under its own momentum. I devised a unique acrylic ink technique in order to realise this work, and now I often feel that the work is realising me: as though I were a mere spectator at the site of my own endeavours. Flux Aeterna is unfinished, and, by its nature, will become more unfinished the more I add to it......
