Wood, steel, ink, fishing line.

A mechanical connection to the entrance doors of the gallery cause a linear to circular motion in the clock like mechanism in the back gallery. When visitors enter and exit the front space, it causes a sine wave pattern to flow in the collective drawing devices that are suspended under each of the 13 skylights above the back wall. The drawing, or tracing of the history of attendance, is drawn in accumilations of dots and dashes directly onto the wall.
