Using 1050 individual A0 sized frames with long exposure photography, Points in Space presents Melbournes CBDs cycles of repetition by responding to the flow of traffic at key intersections. Bodies join, weld and converge into swarming masses of movement. This movement is present in each city around the world. The work presents how a city environment is controlled through organised systems. Scenarios which may look like elements in chaos, work in harmony.

Made for the Melbourne Fringe Festival 2011 as part of the Atlas program.
