This real-time piece invites viewers into a nostalgic loop, a visual echo of a cherished memory.
The generative video feedback, sourced from footage of two joyful dogs playing on a Brighton beach in 2007 as waves crashed nearby, embodies the act of remembering itself – a recurring image that resurfaces with each cycle.
The slightly distorted and evolving nature of the feedback mirrors how memories can feel both vivid and dreamlike over time, their edges softening or shifting with each recall.
By presenting this personal moment through the lens of a repeating video, the artwork explores the enduring power of simple, happy moments and the way our minds return to them, like waves to the shore.
It's a meditation on time, memory, and the innocent joy captured in a fleeting seaside scene.
