This series uses widely spaced strings of individual LEDs  to project back onto the wall footage of old home movies of typical family gatherings and children playing.  It “reintroduces the flicker-like experience of being visually aware of the projection apparatus while simultaneously viewing the expressive image in mechanized time. The apparatus adds its own degree of expressiveness, affecting the emotions of the viewer, if only by creating obstacles to receiving a single channel of denotation. The inescapable presence of the projection system blocks the given clarity of the image, reducing low resolution to a degree still lower.”
