ABOUT
Double-and-Add plays on a mathematical term used in binary coding, referencing a computational function found in electronic and digital processing.
The three featured artists—Angela Bulloch, Haroon Mirza, and Anthony McCall—use time-based media (programmed light, sound, and slide projection) to investigate the sensory transmission of information through seemingly immaterial systems such as algorithms, electricity, and RGB-light.
Recent acquisitions by Bulloch (Copper 2, 2011) and Mirza (Panasonic2, 2011) are on view for the first time at the Museum alongside a historical slide projector piece by Anthony McCall (Miniature in Black and White, 1972).
