Waveform is about interference and sync. Scans of incoming waves at the Ghanaian coast were denatured by changing the time perspective within the projected image.The material becomes even more artificial as it is presented as sterile hermetic and endlessly repeated loops which inherit the spirit of the original reality. However, these loops seem to move and change organically due to gradually reforming overlays of synthetic material. a meta-sync clocks all four independent projections and defines a hard and dark overall tone in this installation.
