Featuring a swirling spiral from video feedback, this video provides a contemplative visual space for viewers. The spiral appears on and off against colorful oscillation patterns. 

This video shares a close resemblance with Venn’s Apron, which appears to have been made on the same day: January 1,1973. Compared to Venn’s Apron, which has a seemingly improvised approach, this work is paced and structured.
