ROTATE exposes the inconsistencies between the description of a cuboid as a virtual 3 dimensional animation, intended for 2 dimensional display, and the materialization of that animation within 3 dimensional space. The space created to embody the light sculpture is a glass cuboid of the same proportions as the virtual cuboid. Consequently the animation manifests as a discrepant internal architecture of planes, which divide and sweep through the glass cuboid. In the light sculptor the original animation is difficult to identify. The light structures created are anomalous, deviating from the expected form.
