Blinded by the hidden light

In the Project Room of the Pasadena Museum of California Art...






Dan Goods' The Hidden Light.


A projector casts this strange green, noisy light on to the wall. Above my girlfriend blocks part of the scene with the round disc.

Below I stand by the projector and cast a large silhouette of my hand on to the wall. But what's that in the palm of my hand's shadow? (Go ahead. Click on the picture to enlarge it.)

A projected movie of the planets is also cast on the wall, but it is obscured by the green light until the viewer blocks part of the latter.
