Ok, kitty commune pushed aside…Lets see if i can explain what i”ve been thinking about.

I’ve been thinking about this previous project ( http://mirrorsatplay.blogspot.com/2009/05/containovrflo-v3.html ) which now seems to me as a containment unti.  I’m big on ideas related to the holographic universe ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_principle  ) I basically see it as the idea that all information and knowledge is incoded in every point in space time.  so in the project linked above, that knowledge and information was made visible in an abstract sense inside the containment unit.

Now in this current work, the foundation of the previous piece is literally being flipped up side down/ a sort of mirrored, equal and opposite reflection/ and the unit is being turned into a space for communicating to the universe and recieving information from the universe/multiverse.

since the idea stemed from my insecurity of people hearing me recording myself signing, the original idea was simply a sound proof immersive pod for recording, serving a utilitarian purposes but also functioning as a “safe” zone where uninhibited communication can take place.  The original idea was for this unit to be portable and possibly even marketable for people looking for a low cost soultion for a sound proof room but this is moving into the conceptual art realm so now i’m trying to get at the real meaning of why I wanted to create a safe communication zone in the first place… and i think i’m getting there ;)

If i take this to the ideal extream, the unit would also be sheilded from any kind of electromagnetic interference ie radio/telephone/etc. waves that pass through our minds and bodies every second, so a clearer signal path can be established between commuicator and what ever point in space/time/knowledge they’re trying to communicate with/manifest in future/etc.

..I’ll try to condense this down into it’s most essential bits
