Daniel Rozin "Penguins", 2015
Daniel Rozin is a New York based interactive media artist. He is an Associate Art Professor at Tish in the ITP program. In is artistic career he has had exhibitions around the country and the world, both group and solo. His installations use moving objects to represent a greyscale image captured by a camera. It takes numerous pictures per second and a computer pixilates the image in greyscale. The different shades are interpreted as certain angles or front or back depending on the material used. The end result is a a mirror effect made from objects as can be seen in the video.
There is a sense of magic with Rozin's pieces because even though the viewers understand that there is a computer controlling the objects, it is not visible to the viewer. This aspect adds to the sense of awe.
I chose his work because a piece of his was on display in Savannah, GA and did have a chance to go see it in person. This way I was able to learn more about his process.
