You begin by entering the office space of James Cooper, a senior systems analyst. Repetition of sound echoes the repetitive nature of going to the office. You sense something is amiss in this office space. As you look at the window, you see time passing at an accelerated rate. You look back at the pictures; Something is different. You could swear the child was younger. You watch James work and read email, as he appears to be connected to his computer remotely. Suddenly you notice the other picture, and realize that the couple is now 15 years older. At that precise moment, you realize that time is passing in the room. James is watching life pass him by while he works his life away. This is a live documentation of a 4 channel immersive video installation. The room was setup with LCD video screens built into picture frames, projections, and automated computer actions. The work was installed at the Ontario College of Art and Design in room 348 for the OCAD Hyperspace show. ** NOTE: This documentation was from the initial setup. The final installation featured a window frame around the timelapse "window".
