project description:
For more than ten years now my work has focussed on the study of the inter-relationship between the physics of optics and perception.
SSO is an installation made up of 10 individual electronic Morse Code generators and multiple fibre optic balls. The fibre optc "buoys" are connected to the lighting systems. There is no fixed way of installing this series of works. The work may be seen as individual units or simply adrift in the space as a tight collective unit.
