Frogs Along the Highway
2023
Several smartphones play a single resource-heavy video file. Each smartphone is connected to different servers around the world via VPN. Playback of the sample depends on the connection speed from each server. The harmony varies according to the ebb and flow of each connection.
The work is presented in a glass enclosure containing plants from the site on which the frog calls have been captured.
Part of the show Guided Agitations (curated by Jon Olarte and Jet Ilagan). With the support of Pardicolor Art Fund.
