Transdimensional Space: From Moholy-Nagy to Doctor Who

More than ever, Moholy-Nagy's influence circulates within contemporary art and visual media. In this essay, the author reconsiders his extended influence in regard to the complex scientific theories of space-time and molecular forces he invokes in Light-Space Modulator. To do so effectively and provocatively, the author brings on board a fictive resource: "Doctor Who." Like the TARDIS, Moholy's kinetic sculpture is conceptually a transdimensional apparatus that figuratively bores through time and space to connect past, present and future and resonates with today's perception of space-time-light entanglement.
