hilbert02 (2010)

With hilbert02 I found a variation on the topic of fragmentation, by shifting the information of an image - my self-portrait - along the structure of a space-filling curve. This results in fragmentations of various degrees, sometimes in unrecognizable small-scale arrangements, sometimes in larger displaced fragments of the image, like parts of eyes, nose, or lips. In the ideal case of infinite iteration, the arrangement in which one would see oneself undisturbed is very unlikely -- in mathematical terms, of measure 0.

The work was realized using Pure Data and GEM, special thanks to Mathieu Bouchard and IOhannes Zmölnig.
