xtrusions
in time
Take
a black and white movie and print out every frame. Cut away the white
(or black) on each page then stack the manicured frames back in order.
You are left with a sculptural trace of the the actors' and objects' movement
through time.

To
realize this idea I modified some MRI software that radiologists would
use to recreate 3D models of patients insides from a series of 2D scans.
Instead of approximating a stationary solid object from its constituent
deli-thin slices, the software forms an event extrusion by stacking
and shrink-wrapping the series of moment-thin movie frames. Action
becomes solidity.
