A Maquette for Diedrich Knickerbocker.

You are viewing a moment arrested in time, recorded under two light sources moving at over eight times the speed of sound. This is the first NFT created using this unique in-camera filmmaking technology.

During a residency program at the New Museum, I co-founded an R&D studio called Satellite Lab focused on the invention of new technology for photography and filmmaking -- tools to play with how we see time represented. This genesis piece represents the initial goal of freezing a specific past moment, but showing it in a changeable, plastic way in the present, using the visual language of passing time as moving light. Here two lights are tracking the sun's path from two hemispheres.

This piece is made of construction materials repurposed as the framework for a model house -- an architectural site for assembling and altering the past in the present. I imagined a house for Washington Irving's fictional historian Diedrich Knickerbocker, where the past is shaped into new stories, histories and identity.

Created in collaboration with Satellite Lab, where we patented this film-making technology and later used it to create work such as the Valkyrie Flashback scene in the Marvel film Thor: Ragnarok.
