The Ivory Nautilus

Animated marble nautilus loop for Frame TV, 4K screens and venue displays

A marble nautilus rimmed in gold, chambers cut cleanly along the golden ratio, a teal core turning at the centre. Light moves across the stone; the shell does not move at all. See the print.

Made to be left running. On a Frame TV or any 4K television it reads as a painting that breathes; on a computer or projector it is a calming screensaver; on the screens of a hotel, spa, restaurant or shop it is living wall art that asks nothing of the room. The loop ends on the frame it began with, so a screen set to repeat plays it for hours without a cut.

Questions

Does it work on a Samsung Frame TV?

Yes — played as a video from a USB stick (with repeat on), a media app or a laptop over HDMI. The Frame’s Art Mode itself shows still images only; the print of this work is made for that.

Is the loop really seamless?

Yes. The last frame flows into the first, so a screen set to repeat plays it for hours without a jump.

What is the difference between the two licences?

The home licence covers your own screens, private use. The venue licence covers public display in one business location, with the venue named on the certificate. Neither allows resale or redistribution.
