Longplayer by Jem Finer, who is an english artist, is the 1000-year-long composition playing in main place the Lighthouse in Trinity Buoy Wharf and around the world, including on online. This has been playing on computer with six simple algorithms which make alteration of sounds, expecting change the system with future developed techniques.

Longplayer was designed to play during 1000 years, which is the most unique point of this piece. Although anyone can not be sure about possibility to remain this work for 1000-year and even if it can not maintain their system for 1000 years, I think that watching the process how this work has been developed and changed until the time 2999 or destroyed will be interesting.

This piece is living and breathing with us, and probably will exist more than us, sharing same technologies, developments and innovations, which is the most exiting point to me. Most of arts exist in one particular point and can exist more than us but not living with us, setting on such places.

Since an art gallery can surround any object with a sort of invisible force-field or glaze of ‘aestheticality’, it is whether or not it stays in its place. I think it is in part this power of sealing or marooning things in their visibility and this allergy to things that spread that makes art galleries so horribly fatiguing and inhuman: at least to me.

I am excited to listen and see what will happen in this piece as time goes on and also hope Longplayer to live with me as long as it can or I can.
