In the Line of Sight is a light installation that uses 100 computer-controlled tactical flashlights to project low-resolution video footage of moving persons into the exhibition space. Each flashlight projects a light spot – similar to a pixel - on the wall. All flashlights combined create 10 x 10 pixel representations of the source footage. Instead of projections onto flat walls, we imagine the images being projected onto multiple surfaces, i.e. corners, floors, ceilings, using the architectural elements that are specific to the site.
