Moonlit Vapours.

2010.  Light Installation.

A piece produced during my 2010 residency at the Curfew Tower, Cushendall, Northern Ireland.  I took a poem about a local myth 'The Wanderings of Oisin' By W.B. Yeats and transcribed it into code. The letter A was one second of light, B was two seconds of light and so on. I was interested in this (very inefficient) code as the most basic transformation I could think of to turn text into light. This light code was projected from the top-floor, sea- facing window of the tower, emulating a lighthouse or signal towards the sea.
