Imagraph is an optical apparatus that projects video onto closed eyelids, produced as "a medium that mediates two primordial attitudes: projecting an image and closing the senses. Participants close their eyes and wait for the video to be projected. A video prepared in advance is played after being tilted bluish by the spectral compensation for the "blood-red" unique to the participant's own flesh. Here, the lid is also the medium for the very object it is trying to block off. The intended colors, their placements, and their motion can be sent, which realizes animation. However, this in no way implies the triumph of projection over closing the senses. In the privileged posture of the closed eye, the light of the video shares texture and fuses with the visual image of the unconscious. Multiple versions were produced, including a version in which the eyelids of participants lying down are connected by optical fiber to a suspended display pixel on the ceiling, and another version in which a laser projector projects images directly onto the eyelids of participants looking forward.
Imagraphは、閉じた眼に瞼越しに映像を投影する光学装置で、「映像を投影する/感覚を閉ざすという二つの態度を媒介するメディア」として制作された。参加者は目を瞑り、映像の投影を待つ。あらかじめ用意されたビデオは、鑑賞者の肉に固有の血色を補償し青ざめられたのち、一方的に再生される。意図された色彩とその配置、運動が届けられ、蓋は同時にまさにそれが拒もうとするものの媒体となる。閉眼のもと、ビデオの光は無意識による視覚イメージとテクスチャーを共有し融解する。横たわった鑑賞者の瞼が天井から吊るされたディスプレイのピクセルひとつひとつと光ファイバーによって繋がれるバージョンや、正面を向く鑑賞者の瞼にレーザープロジェクターで直接ビデオを投影するバージョンなど、複数のバージョンが制作されている。
