MCRCSM is a multimedia installation, which prioritizes the process of change between macrocosmic to microcosmic points of view. It does so by accepting audio and visual information as it is captured in real time while utilizing computer processing to render a spatialized output. The processing codes that dictate the way sound and digital video are rendered are dependent upon information gathered from audience interaction and environmental data during the event. All aspects of the installation are interconnected. Upon investigation any one individual component will demonstrate its dependence on a web of relationships to reveal both broader and more focused layers of complexity. A single sound may emerge from the space and have an identity, however it’s recognized identity will eventually bring one’s recognition back to its’ relationship to the whole system.
The space in which humanity exists is always linked to the greater system of the universe, or the totality of existence. Direct effect cannot always be measured, but the effect on the environment is always present,whether it appears so or not. MCRCSM celebrates the importance of each individual within a larger structure, but also appreciates the vastness of the system operating outside of individual, and human control.
In the space of MCRCSM each individual has her own definite effect on the environment, working in conjunction with the other individuals (knowingly or unknowingly) along with simulated environmental processes in order to create the universe of MCRCSM.
