Mist (Commentary Four)
created: 13 January 2005

Mousing into one slows the other, This is from the National Gallery of Australia, in Canberra. Beautiful sculptural work that relies on the mist from these misters. This uses child movies, so the one video is loaded twice into a container, each set to autoplay, and a third file, a soundtrack, is also loaded and autoplays. The work has no controller because the containing movie is only 1 second long so you could stop it all you like but it has nothing to do with the video panels within.

There is a long commentary about using child movies, video blogging, and futures.
