Turbulence Artist's Studio: "Continuum." by Michael Takeo Magruder

"Continuum." reflects upon the evolution of our collective history through
the real-time analysis of global news information networks. As no event
transpires in isolation, each moment of our existence is defined by the sum
of an infinite number of interconnected occurrences. Given that no
individual can absorb and process the totality of this information, how can
we obtain an informed notion of the present?

"Continuum." was commissioned by Oog online (http://volkskrant.nl/oog/), a
commentary and opinion platform for the online edition of De Volkskrant
(http://www.volkskrant.nl/) a major Dutch daily national newspaper.
