THE NATURE OF IMAGE
VIRTUAL WOODSCAPE
PHASE 2 VIRTUAL WOODSCAPE reads a flat plywood surface as the map of a landscape. The contour lines were input in a standard 3D-program to read as digital terrain map elevation data. The year-ring patterns in trees are in fact recordings of growth, readable time-space maps. The contour lines were all set in equal vertical steps. By this way, the time axis of growth was converted to elevation axis in the landscape.
