Taking a different perspective on geological layering, this piece consists of over 30 videos, compacted together into a format similar to the material layers of All of the Horizons (p.6). Stretching across the long steel sheet surface,

this piece illustrates temporal sedimentation, forming an abstracted living timeline.

​

Based on the idea that all of time happens simultaneously, each of the 30-or-so clips progresses with its own speed and duration, but is inevitably perceived from a temporal wholeness known only to us as observers. The middle section also implies the existence of two unidentified entities whose poetic ruminations feature as subtitles over the spectral composition.
