Sarah Buckius: trapped inside pixels

This performative-video transforms human movements into digital bits/units that can be copied and pasted, dragged and dropped, rotated and manipulated to create kaleidoscopic patterns. In doing so, the piece explores how digital media uses replication to reconfigure a digitized single moving body into infinite animated mutations.  At the same time, the quirky bodily movements reestablish a sense of human physicality in virtual digital space
