The Hypercube installation is a wonderful illustration of space defined, described and delineated. The fundamental elements which position our minds and bodies in the environments we build are indexed by this hyperactive presentation. Allowing a meditation on the sensations of distance and density, of the minimal and the maximal, the programmed manipulations lead the eye and the mind through a series of illustrative scenarios which are thoroughly engaging.

"And he saw that there was no mood of the mind that had not it's counterpart in the sensuous life, and set himself to discover their true relations, wondering what there was in frankincense that made one mystical, and in ambergris that stirred one's passions, and in violets that woke the memory of dead romances, and in musk that troubled the brain."
- Oscar Wilde, 1891 [novel, serialized 1890], The Picture Of Dorian Gray
