Geiger Counter - Demon interactions
New documentationThis piece begins with forty-nine androgynous cherubim mentioned in the Gnostic Gospels but the organizing principle of this piece is radiation, the ultimate and most natural source of randomness. Each random ping of radiation that registers on the geiger counter triggers one cherubim to transcend their existence and become an activated cherubim. The transformation is noted by color, shape change and the reaction of the other cherubim, which orient themselves toward the elevated cherubim, accepting it as their orbital center until the next radioactive ping. The scale of the other cherubims is proportional to their proximity to the elevated cherubim. Activated cherubim revert to their original colors if they are activated again. The cycle, driven by an endless source of randomness (radiation) is repeated endlessly, reating order from disorder.
