Replica from Jeff Howard on Vimeo.

A collaboration between Jeff Howard and Alex Vessels for the Big Screens class at ITP. Presented at the IAC building’s 120 foot video wall on Friday December 3rd, 2010.

Replica is a performance using live image processing to explore how the awareness of time affects the perception of self-image. Patterns unfold creating a dialogue between the performer and her representation, bringing the contrast of control and authenticity into question.

The project was performed by Claire Westby with the song “Lost in the World” by Kanye West.
