Continuization Loop
by Wim Janssen
🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 2011
“Continuization Loop” by Wim Janssen received a Honorary Mention in the Hybrid Art category of the Prix Ars Electronica 2011.
In _Continuization Loop_ a single 35mm film loop is pulled up and down over more than 150 guide wheels, creating a wall of film. The frames of this piece of film are only black or transparent. When the loop travels through the mechanism, the image of video static appears.
