We live in the present, but the presents incessantly transform themselves into pasts in our brain constructing an inner world that gives us every meaning. In a sense, we live in that reconstructed world. This work pays attention to that transformation and reconstruction.
This work splits the flow of the present into layers and reconstructs the fragmented particle of time on the layers. The pixels of the images of a person received through an infrared sensor and a camera are processed and reconstitute themselves as our pasts on transparent LCD layers. Through repeated experiments, layered transparent LCDs needed to produce overlapping images could be created.
