Conducting Chaos, shot with polarized light




In looking into the mechanics of LCDs, I discovered an exciting parallel to what I was doing by shooting this video in polarized light. My hope for this video is to allude to the torch breaking the glass from behind the screen, or "inside" an lcd monitor (which it will be displayed on). By having the glass literally between two sheets of polarized film as I heat it, I am figuratively placing myself inside the layout of the LCD, where the tempered glass stands in for the liquid crystal, and the torch for the voltage.
