The short, meaningless clips of #videoArt held at the Art Institute's Video Data Bank (https://www.vdb.org/titles/3-cars) - with their opaque viewing requests - makes me even more grateful for UbuWeb (https://www.ubuweb.com/ubu/).

Here's my first permanent public artwork, "Periscopes." When you look through its bulbous lenses, you see scenes that might seem faraway, such as heron stalking their prey; but all of the footage was filmed (by me) within 10mi of its site at Buzzard Point in southwest Washington, D.C., USA.
I worked with a team to install this artwork yesterday. Steelwork by Steven R. Jones.

Here's a video view that gives you a sense of what it's like to peer in the screen. The scenes are fairly still, changing every 30-60 seconds; not dynamic enough to watch like a video per se, but more like an ever-changing picture frame.
