Milling Stop-Motion (tentative) — Open Production

A stop-motion animation made by milling blocks of material, one frame at a time.

Throughout Assembling Anew: Memories, Materials, Context, Technology — Contemporary Japanese Photography vol.23 at the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum, the gallery doubles as a workshop: a milling machine and a box-shaped motion-control rig about 1,800 mm on each side sit in the room, and shooting continues during the exhibition. The finished piece, set to music, will be a few minutes long.

Times may shift depending on how the work goes, and sometimes the machine will be idle. On some days a friend helping out with the project is shooting in my place.
