The installation is composed of two microscopes watching and recording each other and a three screen projection which visualizes the process of interpretive analysis occurring within the software. The system acts as a rudimentary form of AI, where the visual stimuli is translated, in a performative act of seeing, in the centre image (which is comprised of the two microscope feeds concatenated into one). The systems behaviour is, in a mimetic sense, reflective of several kinds of processes which operate under acts of translation and analysis.

BRAD TODD is an artist whose works span several fields of inquiry, principally involving the research/creation of responsive environments which implicate technology as a mirror, filter and catalyst for experience writ large in both an individually embodied sense and its attendant broader socio-political context. From the generative and reactive to the composed and performative, audio and sound design continues to play a key role in his works. Presently he is an instructor in the Design and Computation Arts program at Concordia University in Montréal.
