He tells us about \u201cFlash: An installation\u201d:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConsidering the turn signals of cars as they line up, there is a unique cadence to each line of vehicles and sometimes several cars will blink in unison. This project comes from an idea that something may happen, wondering if I&#8217;ll be around to see it. I feel a sense of limitation&#8211;seeking situations where something unique may be observed if I have the patience to wait for mundane elements to align and do something epic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea will be expressed through a collection of 20 traffic barricade lights arranged on a floor. Over a period of time, a variety of patterns will develop. Mathematically, it is projected that at some point in time all the lights will blink or flash in unison.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe barricade lights would be arranged on the floor and organized to fit in the space allotted. The battery source will be replaced by a wiring system that would allow the installation to be plugged into a wall outlet for continuous play. In order to preserve the authentic experience it is critical that the lights run continuously throughout the duration of the exhibition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Our video profile of the artist appeared in the <a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15bytes\/12jan\/page1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">January 2012 edition of 15 Bytes.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phillips artist, two-time Utah Arts Council Visual Arts fellow and BYU professor, Joe Ostraff is heading out of state next week to install a project in an exhibition: Affect + Reason at the Institute for Humanities Research at ASU in Tempe.
