The Framing Experiment
‘The Framing Experiment’ dives in the notion of ‘finding beauty within the ordinary’. It is about the sacrality of sunrays, a friendly smile or a good cup of tea on a rainy afternoon; sacrality can be found anywhere, you just have to look for it. In order to ‘prove’ this statement, a random grid is projected on top of Eindhoven. The lines create intersections, and pinpoints random locations. This is why it is called an ‘experiment’, to see, or to investigate, if sacrality can really be found anywhere. The structures (or ‘Framing Machines’) let the non-sacral aspects disappear, while enhancing the sacral essence of the location. These machines are location specific, and use its surroundings to ‘frame’ the sacrality of the location.
