Static – Wim Jansen
Static is an installation based on the phenomenon of television static or white noise. This image can be considered as both abstract and figurative. It is not an intended image, but an artifact of a technology. A physical phenomenon. It is recognizable as what it is and has a certain cultural iconic meaning. What is normally specific with creating an image has materialized and become tactile. Every unit of the image is manipulated by hand. Something that appears spontaneously as a by-product is imitated by an apparently slow and inefficient process.
Lightwaves, besides their frequency and amplitude, also have an orientation. Polarization filter only lets light pass in one such orientation. Static is a work made up of more than 43.000 hand-made “pixels” of this material. These little squares were put between large rectangular pieces of plexiglas. In the 5MinutesMuseum, a slowly rotating disc of the same material is placed. When the screen is seen through this disc, it turns into a half transparent field of television static.
The 5MinutesMuseum is support by the Gemeente Eindhoven and Cultuurfonds Strijp-S.
Static is a production of the WERKTANK. It received support of the Flemish authorities.
