Abstract:

  • Panel: Data Disinformation

    Susan Collins’s land­scape works exist as archives of im­ages or real-time pre­sen­ta­tions of im­ages gath­ered from point­ing a we­b­cam at a lo­ca­tion over a pe­riod of months to show im­ages on screen gen­er­ated by chang­ing pixel by pixel over about 21 hours in a day. This work pro­vides a time­frame as well as an in-depth study of a sin­gle land­scape. Pre­sented on the screen in land­scape for­mat the artist in­tro­duces rep­re­sen­ta­tion of time show­ing si­mul­ta­ne­ously day and night views of the same scene stud­ied and recorded over the course of the year.  This paper will show how the ma­nip­u­la­tion of data can in­tro­duce new de­vices and lan­guage to the tra­di­tion of rep­re­sen­ta­tion of land­scape.
