Dressing The Air is the brainchild of the London-based artist Paul Schütze.

In a career spanning 30 years, Schütze has exhibited his photographic and installation works in galleries and museums around the world, released over thirty albums of original recordings, scored a number of films and performed numerous concerts. He has collaborated with artists such as James Turrell, Josiah McElheny and Isaac Julien and musicians as diverse as Bill Laswell, Raoul Björkenheim, Toshinori Kondo, Lol Coxhill and Jah Wobble.

Dressing The Air is a unique open resource that aims to enrich creative thinking by encouraging a multi-sensory approach. A constantly evolving archive and creative news feed, Dressing The Air monitors and reports on a diverse range of art-forms from cinema to sculpture, painting to furniture design, land-art to perfumery.

Non Human Device

CAD has enabled the visualization of hitherto impossible objects. Many of these ideas remain trapped within the virtual world of their inception. They exist at the edges of build ability, even comprehension. This interactive installation, by linking the geometry and "behavior" of its hypothetical subject to bodily gesture, brings the object into the real world in a fundamental way. A way which enables the ideas behind it to bleed into other mediums and to "live" in a way unlikely were it to remain purely screen bound.

"The senses vary, the feeling and the felt vary. To measure their appearances according to the criteria of truth or falsehood is obviously inappropriate: one must first think in terms of the variable."
