Nestor Siré about Unframed Window; a new series of works the artist has recently been developing.
Unframed Window is based on a hardware modification technique developed by PC gaming communities, who repurpose discarded LCD monitors into transparent displays.
Siré approaches this DIY technique as a form of vernacular innovation shaped by shared knowledge and informal technological networks, translating it into a sculptural moving image installation.
