Installation at APO, Pilsen Open Studios, October 15th, 16th, 2011

Below are the videos that were displayed on the televisions.

Teleportation refers to an action of getting from point A to Point B in an instant. An "instant" meaning that it's like the speed of a blink of an eye.

-But would if teleporting could be slowed down?
As we age, people tend to say time moves faster..."Wow, summer went by quick". Or "This year felt like it went faster this year than last year".
-My thoughts lean to the idea of when we age, more responsibilities attach to our daily routines, hence speed increases during the day.

--When I go to work each day, I teleport slowly. In fact, it takes 24 minutes and during my teleport I enjoy the ride. I enjoy the observation of time going away as I'm in the present.

Taking a "look" at my teleport, taking the time to make a point to observe, study and move through causes new awareness in patterns being revealed.
-These patterns reveal themselves when I actually capture and develop a ritual each day when I begin my journey, my teleport.

--I want to capture the moving past.
--I want to capture and record the current-past.
--While in motion, I'm drawn to documenting the teleport / journey as an everyday ritual. The ritual shows pattern for observational enjoyment.

-Performing the ritual enhances the feeling of enjoying time slowly. Having a repeated motion each day causes me to "be still"...study, look and move.
