Owen McAteer →A Box of Digits: Cosmic bursts
Unique · 3.5 kg · Standard wall plug (2.5 W)
In this piece the artist gives control of the artwork to the universe. A Geiger counter detects the unpredictable background radiation of beta & gamma particles, each detected particle emits a burst of energy across the display. The direction size, speed and direction of each burst comes from the random timing of this background radiation.
The counter in the top-left tracks the number of detections since turned on.
