This is a wall piece consisting of an oil painting of the interior of a cave based on a photo taken at Lavabeds National Monument, video and sound. The speaker plays the sound from the news but through an effects processor creating an intense cave-like reverb effect, riffing on ideas about media “echo chambers”, taking a long-view of media technology and history.
