About Hypsography.

Hypsography is an experimental project of mine — an ongoing investigation into patterns and processes. An exploration into how to represent phenomena that are fundamentally time-based in forms that are accurate, yet not themselves intrinsically tied to change over time.

In other words: An attempt to be precisely real, while preserving the abstract. To put it slightly differently, Hypsography is a field guide to the world.

The site itself is shifting over time. New work is added; old work is recategorized; categories are altered; the overall shape begins to take form. Since I am exploring in an experimental manner, the resulting observations are inevitably, naturally, a little loose-jointed.
