MS1 (2022-)
Proposed Material: birchwood, glass, steel, water
The MS series explores the idea of “living” and being “alive” through the lens of thermaldynamics, metabolism, biology, entropy, and time.
MS1 examine energy burn of
A matchstick is placed in a thin metal loop attached to the side of a box, hovering five inches off of the box’s base. The matchstick is worth 2000 kcal. Every day one is burned, its ashes falling into a pile beneath.
There are 73 in total, representing the average global life expectency. The majority have wax the bottom preventing the match from burning out entirely, expect one which is entirely exposed wood.
A little snippet of wood will remain intact, falling into the pile, except one, which burns entirely through.
