FLOATING POINT
PETER FREUND
Floating Point is a work of algorithmic cinema that represents an iconic scene from Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Presented “live” as software from a computer, the film tabulates in real time the twenty-five (25) shots of the original sequence into a grid system based on an impossible geometry.
Peter Freund is usually working on something else. He writes to avoid making art and makes art to avoid writing. He is a sometimes curator so as to avoid his own work, but usually that inspires him to write or make art. He is co-founder of the Barcelona-based artist collective, Adversorecto, which uses “retraction” as a working method for producing individual and collaborative works. www.peterfreund.art
