Discarded library books
 
This site-specific installation bridges Dakota State University’s history and present. Constructed from discarded books borrowed from the Mundt Library, the material used refers to traditional information technology (the printed word) and the education mission of DSU. The acronym RGB connotes red, green, and blue, which is the color model for electronic media like tablets, scanners, and monitors, creating a visual and conceptual link to DSU’s technology mission. RGB also refers to primary colors of light and the red, green, and blue receptor cone cells in our eyes, physiologically responsible for our perception of all colors.
