about
Remote Control is an investigation into domestic electromagnetic activity emitting from wireless remote controls. Remote Control transforms pulses of infrared light into audible waves using discarded remote controllers and hand-built amplitude modulators.
Remote Control detects the electronic patterns of infrared energy via a transmitter, a receiver, and a transceiver: a circuit that can both transmit and receive, modulate and demodulate. This open-energy format reveals the sensitive presence and proximity of infrared carrier waves.
Remote Control manipulates short line-of-site transmissions through patterned button pressing (i.e. power on/off, fast-forward/rewind), extended scrolling (i.e. volume, channel up/down), and deep system adjustments (i.e. menu, program).
