Artist Statement:
Even though a slight unintentional movement would cause yon to return from a time trip to two different moments of the present, the elementary particles which compose you would never interfere with those composing the lagged world, just like X-ray radiation transmits through materials without interfering. A 1/30 second lag, however, would generate a visible difference. This piece takes its cue from the pyramid shown in the background of a photograph of my grandfather, a Japanese Imperial Navy officer.
