Light bubbles passing through a dust cloud.
>From one dimension to the other; in order.
Am I going slow enough to fulfill the past?
Am I missing memories of the future?
The instant-now is full of paths.
Pleats, please, to evolve an infinitesimal time into the future-or-past.
No way to record the images I imagine.
Light bubbles lasting, at least.

Clarissa Ribeiro
Is a PhD researcher at ECA/USP - University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and was a
visiting postgraduate research member of the CAiiA-Hub, Planetary Collegium,
under the supervision of Professor Roy Ascott. At ECA/USP, she is a member
of the Digital Poetics group, headed by her research supervisor, Professor
Gilbertto Prado. Director of the Double collective and artistic director of
Instants of Metamorphosis, in her PhD thesis she is considering and studying
both, the collective practice and the work generated, as complex adaptive
systems. The specificity of the perspective is related to the criterion
adopted which is based on the concept of storied spaces - It is an artifice
to build a network of emergent meanings, helping to visualize the system's
infra-structure itself: the instances of organization, the relations between
the system's elements, and so on.
