INQUIRE

This print was made in 1998 with a Live Cam—the early webcams on the Internet. These cameras were mounted overlooking bridges, public squares and other public places, their output made available on a public web page in accordance with the original concept of a "webcam," (via Wikipedia).

The image in each of the prints display the circular pattern of the LCD projector used to illuminate the Live Cam image onto a lensless camera. Bollinger’s work of this period not only presents the optical beauty of the process, it blurs the boundaries between analog and digital throughout.
