1. photographic ontological parallax

project a still photograph of a thing onto the thing itself -

variations :

project a video loop of a thing onto the thing itself

project a video loops of a thing onto the thing itself... make use of locked camera with object moving “extemporally” (i.e. jump cuts, movement in and out of frame non-continuously, etc.)

what this means: it is difficult for people to make the distinction between the representation of the thing and the thing itself. it is also difficult for people to understand the instability of the object defined. when we view an object as itself evolving in simultaneity with its frozen synchronic icon, we understand the difficulty of defining anything as an unconditionally stable self.
