Whitehouse creates first 24-hour high definition digital landscapes.

In a continuation of Whitehouse’s interest in creating an art that captures contemporary landscape experience and conserves it for future generations, Whitehouse’s new project - 'Revolution' - is the creation of a series of 24-hour, single shot, high definition digital works that record from a fixed camera every movement, light shift, mood shift and sound that occurs in the chosen composition for an entire 24-hour period - one revolution of the earth. The works are then viewed in real time on large scale plasma screens.

The first such work, 'Water', begins with the sound of waves breaking on Lake Michigan’s shore at midnight. At dawn the sun rises to reveal the composition. A storm blows through, light and mood constantly shift, the sun sets, night falls.

Special thanks go to Panasonic. All plasma screens, cameras and speakers used to create Revolution generously provided by Panasonic.
