Type-Trace Exhibition
The first edition of Divvy/Dual includes an exhibition by artist Takumi Endo: "Type-Trace".
"Language is the most basic media we all exploit in every day life. We generate thousands of words a day, typing emails and documents. The work records and plays back the act of typing along a timeline. As each key typed is regenerated with sound to form a mass of words, the presence of the typist emerges in the space, and this weaving shifts shape as you leave your traces on the texts of others."
[Artist: Takumi Endo; Software Engineer: Shinyaa Matsuyama; Coordinator: Dominick Chen]
