Philadelphia-based art publisher Bit Editions, maker of video art installation displays, recently announced an easy to use service that lets artists feature their own animation on their LED displays. The artist simply sends their animation to Bit Editions as a sequence of 1984 bitmap images (they provide custom animation software for free). Then the animation is programmed into the LED display and the display is shipped to the artist. The displays are 12 by 14 inches in size and contain one LED per square inch. Each LED can show eight levels of brightness. That's John Flear's Fireflies below, see the movie here.

Digital artist and architect Margot Krasojevic explores our perception of space, both physical and virtual. Decodeine is her web site that employs animations and simulations to take a look at time sequence, memory, order and an instinctive response to space. Krasojevics premise is that since we are able to change our perception of reality, why not have more than one environment? Her projects involve time-space theory by way of Quantum mechanics and relativity in order to give more weight to a floating reality where time has no given sequence. The above is a detail from the digitization of the Swimming Pool Projected Realities segment of Krasojevic's project on pathological space.
