'Millionth Acre Archive' (detail). Bracing plywood, custom electronics. dimensions variable. 2017. While DJI Mavic drone videos are natively recorded in 4k, these monitors were restricted to 640x 480 resolution. The choice of small, low resolution, poor quality and visible audio-visual components in this work is intentional. This approach highlights the materials and technologies that underpin the often seamless experience of contemporary art, rather than obscuring them.
