LIA’s ProximityOfNeeds 20210428 was the second title after the working title, YCAGWYW, which stands for “you can’t always get what you want” – if you know the song by the Rolling Stones, then you know that the lyrics continue with “but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need”. All the black and white circle elements are finally “getting what they want”–the red circle. The screen-recorded version of the work stems from Proximity of Needs (2008), an interactive web-based work accessible at liaworks.com.
