2022 - 2023 WAIT project...
A hiatus in my social media and exhibiting activities was turned into a project about waiting in darkness. It employed playful use of code and accompanying social media posts using audio and animation.

An old transistor radio was the inspiration for a graphic to be used in social media posts.
A radio dial graphic made with Affinity Designer.
The WAITing idea gave rise to related text, presented in the style of a cold war radio broadcast:
Watchman, Waters, Signal , Dreams
Adamant, Daughter, Red Light, Gleams
Inveterate, Hero, Sentinel, Rhyme
The Elephant, In Cairo, Ending, Time
THE ELEPHANT IN CAIRO
