Our projects of today are the realities of tomorrow.
Whatever exists in our imagination is on integral port of ourselves.
Experience is imagination carried over into the sensual sphere.
Immediate experience comes only when we ourselves participate. To obtain widest participation, the production of art must cease to be limited to the individual, as it has been till now.
Technology as a medium of composition offers great possibilities in the formulation of aesthetic
information.
Since imitative values cannot arise here, originality is unimpaired. Thus the creative element in the phenomenon of movement is preserved.
To render the development of a movement visible as a dynamic state is a significant action. It is not a matter of routine but fertile in its repetition, in its very monotony, like the experience of prayer.
My objects constitute a spatial reality, a zone of light. I use the means of technology to overcome the personal gesture, to objectify, to create the conditions for freedom.
