LED Screen Ball
19,6 ” x  15,7 ”

From the entrails of an LED Screen ball, developed and assembled specially for this project, a Hebrew blessing known as ‘beraha’ is continually projected. This particular ‘beraha’ is pronounced by rabbis to bless the space where a miracle took place. In this case, the blessing is reproduced and repeated by a spherical machine, not phonetically but visually. On the word of Socrates  “never by means of sounds one can imitate the things to declare what they properly are.”
