Hardesty in his studio recording the video portion of the
"Over" installation. It was recorded on green screen
so that the background could be knocked out a digitally solid
black.
In the projection of the video, Hardesty appears to be walking
in a large circle. In actuality, he was stationary, walking on
a motorized treadmill he designed himself. In the actual piece,
the projector itself rotates at a speed that simulates walking
speed. Note also that the camera here is tilted sideways. The
projector was also tilted sideways, to maximize screen coverage
and increase resolution.
