Image machine #24
Image machine #24 is an installation that creates images by moving oil with high voltage. The high voltage probes make the oil static and cause it to discharge itself. Therefore the oil gets at certain places pushed down en other places pulled up, which creates the images you see. The inspiration for this machine comes from apparatuses that play with different techniques of image creation and have not led to commercial success or have never even progressed beyond an experiment. In these devices something special happens, the techniques and materials they use, create imperfections.
