A collaboration with Nick Selenitsch, exhibited at RMIT Project Space. This work involved two kinetic sculptures. The center piece, Movements Work#1 involved thumb-tacks resting on the table top, as the audience moved around the table motion sensors would activate magnets which rotated beneath the surface, agitating the thumb-tacks. Movements Work#2 released a steel ball every eight hours. Traversing the window and then the gallery space the ball would come to rest in the small gallery at the rear of the space. We settled on eight hours as an acknowledgment of the Eight Hour Day movement which was initiated in Melbourne in 1956. The Eight Hour Day Memorial sits not far from the gallery space on the corner of Russel and Victoria Street.
