These books are movement studies. Through this project, we wanted to compare three movements, one macro, one meso and one micro. The comparison should show similarities between the three. Each book depicts a movement. The videos of the selected movements were divided into 13 frames, and traced as notation on transparent foil. As a macro-movement, we have chosen a video of stars circling around a black hole. As a meso movement, a video of a flying flock of birds and as a micro-movement we have selected a video of a cell division (mitosis). The front and back covers are the beginning and ending of the movements. The books are bound with nylon threads. This type of binding allows the reader to leaf through as a regular book but also to view the movement in three-dimensionality. The perception of the movements is left to the reader to interpret, as there are many ways to view them. This project was created in collaboration with Nicole Uslenghi.
