In Motion Studies, I explored how a person addicted to virtual space would respond to an overload of his addiction. This overload was created by forcing myself to indulge in my own addictive behaviors on the computer for an entire week straight, for over 14 hours each day. This produced a study in both my physical degradation as I completely immersed myself within virtual space, and also paralleled that condition to the virtual life that I was creating. These comparisons were made physical by presenting the surveillance video collected over the week on three monitors which were divided into 9 smaller video screens. On these 27 mini screens I presented the week in total, focusing on points of interest within the three monitors. In moments such as shown in fig. 3, I compare my head-shot as I play to the headshots I make in the game.
