In this narration, Simms describes his experience navigating an art installation where the journey through space plays a crucial role in the perception of the artwork. As he moves through different wings of a building, the darker east wing with black scrims initiates a mysterious experience with smoky light diffractions.

SIMMS: THE FIRST TIME I WENT
00:00:06
AFTER THE PIECE HAD BEEN
00:00:08
COMPLETED, I BEGAN TURNING
00:00:09
LEFT...
00:00:18
AND THAT TOOK ME INTO THE EAST
00:00:20
WING, WHICH IS THE DARKER WING.
00:00:23
AND THERE'S THAT LONG DOUBLE
00:00:26
SCRIM, THE BLACK ONE, ON THAT
00:00:27
SIDE.
00:00:38
WHAT YOU WIND UP SEEING IN
00:00:39
THERE OR FEELING--IT'S MORE
00:00:41
THAN SEEING. IT'S A WHOLE KIND
00:00:42
OF EMBODIED ENCOUNTER THAT
00:00:45
TAKES PLACE. BECAUSE IT WAS
00:00:47
THIS DARKER WING, IT STARTED TO
00:00:48
FEEL VERY SMOKY TO ME SOMEHOW.
00:01:04
AS YOU MOVE DOWN, YOU START TO
00:01:06
SEE THESE SUBTLE INTERESTING
00:01:08
KINDS OF--I GUESS THIS
00:01:09
DIFFRACTION OF LIGHT IN THE
00:01:12
SCRIMS, WHICH CREATES THE
00:01:14
IMPRESSION OF BLUE AND RED KIND
00:01:16
OF APPEARING AND KIND OF LIKE
00:01:17
ZAPPING HERE AND THERE, JUST
00:01:19
SPARKLING IN THE SCRIM...
00:01:28
AND SO BECAUSE EVERYTHING
00:01:30
IS STRIPPED DOWN SO
00:01:31
MUCH, THESE LITTLE
00:01:32
EVENTS MATTER, YOU START TO PAY
00:01:34
ATTENTION TO THAT, AND AS YOU
00:01:37
MOVE ALONG, YOU'RE LOOKING OUT
00:01:39
THE WINDOWS. BECAUSE YOU'RE
00:01:42
WALKING AND MOVING, BECAUSE
00:01:45
THERE'S ALWAYS A WINDOW
00:01:47
SOMEWHERE IN YOUR FIELD
00:01:48
OF VISION, THINGS OUTSIDE
00:01:51
ARE CHANGING AS YOU MOVE.
00:02:06
SO THE MOVEMENT INTO THE BACK,
00:02:09
INTO THE SOUTH, NOW YOU TURN
00:02:12
AND YOU MOVE THROUGH THESE
00:02:13
PORTALS...
00:02:51
AND THEN, THERE'S THIS AMAZING,
00:02:54
ALMOST BLINDING EXPERIENCE OF
00:02:55
LIGHT BECAUSE YOU'RE MOVED
00:02:56
TOWARDS THE WHITE SCRIMS, THOSE
00:02:58
PORTALS THAT TAKE YOU INTO THAT
00:02:59
LIGHT WESTERN WING...
00:03:12
WHERE THE STUCCO'S A LITTLE
00:03:14
LIGHTER, WHERE THERE'S NO
00:03:15
WINDOW TINTING, AND WHERE THERE
00:03:16
IS THIS WHITE DOUBLE SCRIM, AND
00:03:22
THEN, COMING DOWN THE LIGHT
00:03:24
SIDE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE AT
00:03:26
SUNSET THERE--BECAUSE THE IDEA
00:03:28
IS THAT'S THE DUSK, THAT'S THE
00:03:30
SIDE WHICH IS THE SUNSET
00:03:31
SIDE--THE PLACE JUST LIGHTS UP.
00:03:33
IT'S UNBELIEVABLE.
00:03:58
THEN, LET'S SAY, YOU TURN
00:03:59
AROUND AND WALK BACK. IT'S NOT
00:04:01
AS THOUGH YOU'RE JUST REPEATING
00:04:02
YOUR STEPS. IT'S A WHOLE NEW
00:04:04
KIND OF UNFOLDING THING WHERE
00:04:06
YOU HAVE NEW DISCOVERIES, AND
00:04:08
SO THAT'S WHERE YOU GET THAT
00:04:10
OPPORTUNITY TO BE THE ARTIST
00:04:12
BECAUSE FOR IRWIN THE ART IS
00:04:14
NOT WHAT YOU SEE THERE. IT'S
00:04:16
WHAT'S HAPPENING, YOU KNOW, IN
00:04:18
YOUR EXPERIENCE AS YOU MOVE
00:04:19
THROUGH IT, AND YOU GO THIS
00:04:20
WAY, AND THEN YOU MOVE BACK THE
00:04:23
OTHER WAY. IT'S ALWAYS
00:04:25
DIFFERENT, EVEN IF ONLY SUBTLY.
00:04:27
SO THAT FOR IRWIN MOVING BACK
00:04:29
AND FORTH IN THIS BUILDING IS
00:04:32
A CONSTANT FORWARD STEPPING.
00:04:35
THERE'S NO POINT IN WHICH
00:04:36
YOU'RE REPEATING YOUR STEPS.
00:04:37
YOU'RE TAKING FORWARD
00:04:38
STEPS ALL THE WAY THROUGH.
