Experiments In Classical Mechanics: Experiments in Classical Mechanics is a multichannel video series comprised of various durational performance experiments that flirt with the core topics and fundamental concepts of Newtonian physics. Translation: performer (macroscopic objects) doing things (motion) in super, digital slow motion (time-stretching). Statics and dynamics, kinematics, continuum mechanics, playing with space, time, impulse, torque, and lots of projectiles. I like projectiles. All experiments are documented in video and time-stretched to two percent of natural speed to allow users to view motion as it unfolds frame by frame engendering a process-focused narrative. Adjacent screenshots are from web-based videos. (nobody is perfect)
