One of the great experimental films. A 60 minute, three part riddle that maybe approximates our intellectual development by moving from imageless words to the recognition of silent images and the learning of simple tasks and finally a serenity and acceptance of death.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
Quasi-theatrical multiple-projector pieces play with the relationship between performers, art and audiences.
A carefully thought out, simple but rich performance using just a turntable, teach yourself foreign language LP’s, the impeccable timing of a percussionist, and an idea.
