CU Soon' is a performance work for humans and satellites. A series of electronic ‘postcards’ encoded as radio signals were sent to satellites orbiting the planet. These messages travel out into space and return, scrambled, reassembled into something new.
For this print collection the images are presented in pairs: the original postcard that was sent into space and the modified image returned by the satellite. Each diptych forms a narrative of before and after. They show the postcard image’s transformation through their encounter with the satellite, and the noise and glitches acquired during this epic journey into space and back.
