"A cyberspace is a light-show."
(Paul Virilio in an interview with Louise Wilson)

My travels through one of today’s self-proclaimed leading online worlds, SECOND LIFE, took place in the fall of 2008 from my home in Surrey BC, Canada. I went sightseeing in several of its virtual domains and photographed my screen from my embodied existence in real time and space similar to how I would approach my ‘real life’ holiday snapshots. The large C-prints produced from these negatives give presence to the ‘woolly’ RGB phosphors of my CRT monitor: the phosphor dots simultaneously deconstruct the image as a ‘light show’ and call up material associations with, for example, fabrid or an embroidered surface.
