| Chambers put together this exercise in irony and interaction leading to possible frustration for the participant. He doesn't necessarily want you [the participant] to view the whole, which is a record of one of the saddest and most shameful periods in his country's [America] history. Perhaps a part or glimpse is enough. However, it is possible to access the record through continued utilization of the mouse - a chasing of history, if you will. And as you move the mouse about, the exercise [each piece] also becomes kinetic (Abstract Expressionistic). Note: Part of the Rhizome ArtBase. Founded in 1999, the Rhizome ArtBase is an online archive of new media art containing some 1600 art works, and growing. The ArtBase encompasses a vast range of projects by artists all over the world that employ materials including software, code, websites, moving image, games and browsers to aesthetic and critical ends.
