Joe Hamilton: Merge Nodes

  • Joe Hamilton

Merge Nodes contains footage shot on location by the artist in 12 countries in the Middle East, Asia and Europe. The footage has been layered and edited in quick succession with sliding and zooming transitions inspired by the way we navigate digital maps. A mixture of natural and urban environments are featured in hot and cool climates with traditional panoramas and up-close details. The specific locations were chosen based on indirect flight paths between major hub airports to create a representation of landscape that traces the logistical infrastructure that allow these geographically separate perspectives to coexist.
