説明	Here is a view of the Spomenik for resolutions, which I made for Dance with flARmingos: AR Tour & Raffle! in Queens, New York! The monument is also implemented in Geneve at 46.218528, 6.127866.Geneva is a very special city; it does only house the ISO (international Organisation for Standardisation), but also the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), which are two major players in the setting of International Standards.International Standards make things work. They give "world-class specifications for products, services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency". They are instrumental in facilitating international trade and support innovation to “provide solutions to global challenges”. But Standards are more than just solutions that make things work; rooted within political, economical, technological and cultural backgrounds, they also involve compromises between different matters and actors.These compromises and their inherently denied, alternative outcomes are often obfuscated or even forgotten. For example: when we speak about video, we refer to a four cornered moving image; we do not consider video with more or less corners (3, or 5, or 149++ corners), layers, timelines, or soundtracks. Color film and JPEG algorithms are racist. Fonts can only be implemented as monchrome typefaces, Ghosts can only communicate through analogue forms of noise and animals cannot own copyright.Resolutions form a lens through which materialities are constituted. They resonate a tonality of functionality and inform material vernaculars. In short, resolutions inform both machine vision and human ways of perception. It is therefore of upmost important to realize that with every resolution, alternative implementations are unthought, forgotten or even lost and forever unseen. This Spomenik stands in for ghosts of resolutions, that would have given form to alternative futures passed.A commission for the Queens Museum organized by Kristin Lucas.
