Abstract:
Multiscreen media art installations create immersive experiences for audiences by relying on opposing techniques of rupture, dissonance as well as convergence of space and time. Artists use various techniques in the production and display where screens become the fields of overlapping spatial and temporal differences. This article analyses Natalie Bookchin’s multiscreen installation Now he’s out in public and everyone can see (2012) to explicate the multiple temporal ranges and durations at work in the installation. Diverse spatio-temporal experiences in the installation are facilitated by the physical arrangement of multiple screens and through the rhythmic editing of the work.
