-162°C:
TRADING POWER
At -162°C natural gas becomes liquid. Japan is the top LNG purchaser for Qatar. Although mostly economic, this unique agreement impacts culture, lifestyle, and geopolitics. This installation investigates the implications of this trade, and translates it into generated material printed by a kinetic installation of 40 floating printers. Fifty thousand images. Thirty thousand facts in Arabic, Japanese, and English.
Joint project and exhibition by the Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology and VCUarts Qatar. Tokyo Edition hosted at a gallery space run by Wieden+Kennedy Tokyo. Doha Edition hosted at the Firestation as part of the 10th edition of Tasmeem Doha, a biennial international Art + Design conference.
I worked with Levi Hammmet and George Paul, to write a program using Processing, that controls the file selection structre, and the timed printing choreography for the printers.
