	THE ABYSS
		"a flatbed scanner, mounted on the wall, a golden thick frame depicting the image." 
		the act of framing depicts the image. everything inside a white cube becomes a piece of art &&
		likewise everything inside the fence of the frame becomes an image.
		the scanner is working, its scanning its front. the surface of the scanner as the anti-image,
		the image is digitised, transformed, rasterised, uniformed. gazing at the image, this image
		is gazing back.


	NIPKOW-DECELERATOR
		decelerating nipkow scanpoint from its uniform pattern movement (top-left to right botton).
		only the point (square) displays its part of the (real)timeincomingimage, the outputtedimage
		consists of a collage of rearrange (unorderd) time-space pattern.

	ZSCAN
		the process of scanning (the 1d serialisation of a parallel 2d image) translated from the
		inputdevice () to the outputdevice (monitor). only the scanline of a scanned scene is visible,
		the image can only be imagined.
												perception demands endeavour.

scanning, screening.


time-image. time in the image. 

the principle of scanning was invented ~1849 and consisted of discretising a 
2-dimensional image into a 1-d chain of signal. converting 2d (space) into 
1d (space) and 1d (time). zeitlich rŠumliche auflšsung. time space dissolvement 
of the image.

•	lightspeed.proposal.html (with jussi)
	...
	Technically Lightspeed is a turning table, having a projector and a
	computer and a videocamera rotating on it. The videocamera continuously
	scans one vertical line in the room, and the computer builds consequtive
	lines into an image sliding across the projection. The camera and the
	projector are aligned so that the line being scanned is at the vertical
	edge of the projection, hence feeding an image of the space back to the
	space. Because the rotation of the platform is synchronised with the
	image, what is being scanned is displayed exactly in the same location.
	Only what moves is seen. Because movement is recorded in time axis,
	people in the room leave traces of themselves, their pasts, into the
	walls for an extended moment, being swiped off with the next revolution
	of scanning.

•	underscan/overexposed

	inverting the principle of scanner by misusing it as an chromatograph.
	scanning with light becomes writing with light.
	can there be a result when scanning light sensitive paper?
		what will be on the image?
		what will be on the other image?



•	nipkow - decelerator
	playing with the basic working principle of image transmission with a series of image
	points this piece tries to emancipate the stubborn order of left-top to right-botton.

•	scanning while scanning
	it is clear how the image looks before scanning. likewise it is clear how the image
	appears after scanning.
	but what exactly is happening WHILE scanning.
	a special developed programm allows to view the random access memory (RAM) as moving
	images. a shortcut to the image. the techno-techno-techno image.
	


•	worldscan
	which scanning resolution is necessary, if i want to cover 'the world' 
	with 1 DIN A4 paper at, lets say 72dpi?
	worldscan =	?

•	ascii-scanning
	(qwertz-scope, qwertz-scan, tastaturgrafie)

		following the facts that both scanner AND keyboards are input devices for the indifferent
		different machine, a simple switch can do wonders.
		
		(TCR ___tactile___ ___character___ ___recognition___.)
		
		the keyboard is the scanner. the keyboard is even the 3d scanner. pressing and wrapping
		the kb around one's head produces the sequential text from a parallel parallel image.

• 	the abyss

	('if you are gazing into the abyss, be careful that the abyss does not gaze into you')
	
	a scanner is framed an hung on a gallery wall like a old master. everything between the quadruple
	of a frame (the four sides) is meant to become an image. by replacing the space in between with
	a scanner, uninterrupted scanning, the relation of viewer and viewed is perverted. the image (the scanner
	is in possesion of a gaze constantly looking outside the picture frame, but the images this looking
	produces are not stored.
	a confrontation of gazes, meeting in the vanishing point between the picture frame.
