67 Degrees South, 78 Degrees North, 2007

Antipodes
Polar Wandering
unknown, Two-channel syncronised video projection (animated webcam stills) colour, silent

Every minute for one year, the images transmitted from two webcams, each at opposite ends of the planet, were captured and compiled to create the timelapse work 78 Degrees North, 67 Degrees South. Beginning on the southern hemisphere's longest day (and subsequently the northern hemisphere's shortest day), the two videos are viewed side by side, tracking the contrasting seasons and extreme weather conditions at these diametrically opposite locations.
