TeManawa Gallery installation shots. (1). foreground screen, one of two suspended back-to-back. (2). 3 of 5 screens in gallery space.

The way the interactive works is that each screen in it's passive state clicks over the video content at one frame a second, (giving the impression of a silent set of video portraits in the space) until such time as a viewer stands directly in front of the screen. The viewers presence triggers the interactive interface and the video immediately plays to the viewer at speed. There are ten performances on each screen, each approximately 30" - 60" in duration. As a viewer moves away from a screen the video slows and returns to its passive state of 1 frame a second.

5 x 55" LCD screens, wall mounted and suspended .
