Scope and Contents

Kac comments on "Adrift," a holographic poem commissioned for the Sackner Archive. It is composed of 7 words that dissolve into space along the Z axis as the viewer reads them back and forth. The letters that make up the words are floating freely along the Z axis except for the word "breathe," which is somewhere integrated into the overall light field. This word blows life to the other words as its letters actually move away from their original position to dissolve again into the light field. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
