“This sculpture and screening space proposes a free cinema, emerging out of a desire to make private viewing habits public. The cinema goes by the name This Light.”

As public space is rapidly moving into private property, and attention into the monetised distraction of streaming in solitude, this cinema activates viewing possibilities offered through networked technology. It opens up a subjective and meandering streaming of continuous content to a collective and public viewing experience.

The space is conceived and programmed with events and daily playlists by Andrew Norman Wilson and invited associates, as part of the exhibition Techne and the Decency of Means.
