The Microscope - 2006 modified microscope, sound installation, brochure Format variable Installation views: Sensorium: Embodied Experience, Technology and Contemporary Art, List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge (USA), 2007. A microscope from the MIT labs is sitting on a shelf. The eyepiece is replaced by a headphone speaker. Placing one's ear on the speaker, a vocoder voice singing 'Every Breath You Take' is audible. On the other end of the shelf lies a take-away brochure. It contains a conversation with Evelyn Fox-Keller who is a professor of History and Philosophy of Science at MIT. One of her essays, The Biological Gaze, looks specifically at the microscope and asks which concepts of looking generate what the scientist actually sees under the microscope. The construction of reality based on what one sees with the mind's eye is examined in the conversation. Courtesy of the artist; MIT List Visual Arts Center; Johann König, Berlin
