Although not included in the exhibition, Horizontal Technicolour was produced the same year.

 

The work consists of a 32-unit Pixel Box wall with cinemascope proportions, which plays a two-part, 13:12 min looped color sequence. The first half of the sequence is a ‘pixelated’ video footage shot at The Artist’s Palette in Death Valley, Califonia — so named because its rock formations are stained with toxic minerals. Bulloch shot the footage from a moving vehicle “to capture the sense of a landscape rushing past”. 

 

The second half is based on the rotated cosmological horizon lines in the psychedelic ‘Stargate’ scene in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).
