Artist Statement:

An installation by Christopher Salter in collaboration with Marije Baalman and Harry Smoak. Just Noticeable Difference is intended for an individual experience and can only be accessed by one person at a time.

Just Noticeable Difference is a sensory environment for one person at a time in which total darkness is accompanied by extraordinary small variations of sense stimuli. Barely detectable body motions are sensed and affect the patterns and intensity of a composition of touch, light and sound. The installation explores the fluctuation between noise and order, sensation and sense making directly at the level of bodily perception.
