Kurzbeschreibung

The Gambit is an interactive animation in the form of a site-specific performance/installation to take place in the lobby of the Westin-Bonaventure Hotel, Los Angeles (John Portman, 1977). The medium of the project is a digital compass attached to a PDA with a 2.25" by 3.33" color screen and headphones. The apparatus lets you "see through walls" to spaces outside the hotel that are around you but not directly visible to you. This"seeing through the walls” has a shape, and tells a story. The story is told through an animation made up of a pattern of still photos, words and sounds. The pattern is ordered by a spiral inscribed on the map of the city. The story is of a hotel flower arranger and a world in which flower arrangements have archival and narrative abilities.
