Anna Wignell showed a video installation at her Master show at Galleri Mejan. The program sorts over one million pixels per second from a videocamera placed in the space using Jitter for MAX/MSP. "The smallest elements of the digital video image, its pixels, are being sorted by brightness, and are being processed from left to right working upon rows from top to bottom. [...] The complexity of the original camera image (reality) is being reorganized/ordered into a soft gradation/transition. The perspective changes from depth to surface. A soundtrack accompanies the shift of the image" Anna Wignell, 2005 Click on camera for pictures!
