Depicting first contact of a humanoid form on a foreign land or planet. Using theatrical systems, the installation visualizes a possible scenario as a encapsulated film setting. A large cloth background in the 16:9 ratio of film ripples through a fan system. Waves of colored light flow through it, visualizing the atmospheric winds of the planet. A lone astronaut stands in front, stretched and distorted from the variance of gravity. From the astronaut hangs a parachute made from reflective mylar. And at the end of the parachute is a satellite form made of light and metal. Live crickets hidden among the alien plants generate random sounds, hinting at the organic life forms while communicating in an uninterpretable language.
