Water Wheel(1985), a seven channel installation presented through a circle of monitors, incorporating material from The Water Catalogue
Music by Bill Seaman
In Water Wheel I was exploring fragments from the linear work The Water Catalogue. A Generative musical score created by different loop durations coming from each separate monitor.
Concepts: loops, a layering of emotional states, memory theatre like space, generative music explored through loop duration permutations, generative image juxtapositions explored through loop duration permutations
