Janine Randerson's 'Cascade' at Moesgård Museum in Denmark

Janine Randerson's installation 'Cascade' at the exhibition RETHINK INFORMATION at Moesgård Museum in Århus, Denmark 30 October 2009 to10 January 2010.
Janine Randerson explores the interface between the bio-system, meteorology and technology. 'Cascade' presents projected images and sounds extracted from scientific mapping software, bio-sonar signals and shared videos of internet users that register the impacts that climate change has on the survival of Arctic animals and the system that sustains them.
'Cascade' suggests that a conscious transformation of our thinking is required to avoid the chain of events that ultimately will lead to the disappearance of species.
Cascade is a liquid metaphor; the effervescent beauty of falling water offers us a direct kind of ecstasy. Yet 'Cascade' also refers to an ecological succession of impacts, each stage dependent on the one before it.
The installation is a part of the exhibition RETHINK - CONTEMPORARY ART AND CLIMATE CHANGE (24 works at 4 museums in Denmark).
Janine Randerson (NZ) is a new-media artist, based in Auckland, New Zealand. The installation consists of dataprojection, cellulose projection screens and sound. Video-production by Jens Kirkeby, Moesgård Museum.
