Looping

The loop is like the infinity symbol, a beautiful set of curves that twist and bend back into itself continuing forever. A moment in time captured like a phtotograph, yet containing many seconds instead of just a fragment of a second. Where do we see the loop in American culture? How does the idea of the loop affect painting or sculpture? What does it mean to create a loop if 'the medium is the message' ? (quote by Marshall McLuhan)
