‘My dear my dearest’ dust is coupled with the art installation ‘Towards the moon’, created and guided by Michel Vaerewijck.
This installation confronts and highlights the human longing quest for immortality and the need of eternal trace.
The audience is invited to send a confession into the universe. The written message is translated into electro-magnetic energy through morse code, whereby it will travel towards the moon and gravitate in space for eternity.
The message leaves earth, the radiogram travels at approx. 299792458 meters per second. The energy wave will ripple through the universe like waves in a pool. The words will pass the moon after approx. 1 second and mars after 12,6 minutes. It will leave the solar system after 5.5 hours, pass the Big Bear constellation in 31 years and leave the Milky Way after 100000 years, to go on infinitely. Even after the disappearance of humanity.
