FINAL INSTALLATION CONCEPTS
i won't lie, i'm already set on a concept, but here are my final 3 "realistic" (as opposed to ideal) concepts:
1. "scattered"
2. "stacked"*
3. "draped"
____________________
SCATTERED
equipment needed: 5 TVs
5 DVD players
sound omitted
this concept consists of scattering and hiding various monitors throughout the gallery space. while visible, each placement will be slightly 'hidden', giving the viewers a since of discovery, and a personal, intimate experience with each piece. granted, with this scenario, parts of the project will have to be omitted, such as sound, and the loops of 5 videos (each tv will have only a single video on loop, as not to confused 'the discoverers'), but an experience is still being offered to the viewer.
STACKED
equipment needed: 5 TVs
5 DVD players
2 sets of headphones...**
perhaps the simpilest concept, but the one i find the most concise and satisfying. consists of a vertical stack of 13 inch TVs, preferable in a corner, each displaying a loop of 5 videos (each starting with a different video). this way, the whole project is simple, concise, and even raw--there are no distracting frills or over designed concept. it is bare and present--much like the videos themselves.

**need to figure out where the sound will come from...
DRAPED
equipment needed: 1 projector
1 cd player
fabric/wire/hooks
this concept consists of creating a separate partition for the projection of the videos onto a white wall. the curtain will serve both as a light blocker, as well as create an intimate space for viewers. sound will be ambient, not connected to headphones.
