Parts make a whole

Chambers put together this exercise in irony and interaction. He doesn't necessarily want you (the participant) to view the whole, which is a record of one of the saddest and most shameful periods in his country's (America) history. Perhaps a part or glimpse is enough. However, it is possible to access the record through continued utilization of the mouse - a chasing of history, if you will - and as you move the mouse about, the exercise becomes kinetic (Abstract Expressionistic). (Interact by moving mouse over the black area for each piece; scroll horizontally to interact with each piece.)
