Legacy (2022)
The animation work using photogrammetry describes the stages of the demolition of the former government office building. The purpose of the house, which was completed in the early 1980s, was later renewed to meet the needs of the workers of the 21st century. In addition to this heritage, the name Legacy is a term used in programming. It means storing outdated code in software. Legacy code is often difficult to replace with newer code. The audio-visuality of the work concerns the aesthetics of the Windows operating systems of the 80s and 90s. The soundscape of the piece, uses the typical computers sounds of the era.
There are three steps to the media art space Mediabox, but the work is also available for viewing on a tablet by request.
Mediabox is Forum Box gallery’s space dedicated to media art. The program is co-curated with AV-arkki.
