Frey, Video, 2009
Television static engulfs the image of a woman rolling, crawling, and spastically retracing her own steps. In a communication dead-end, nothing is broadcast. The mirroring effect comments upon the reflections of one's self echoing into nothing, never-ending.... The sound was created by manipulating samples recorded with contact microphones on various surfaces. Short sounds from the freesound.org project were also used by triggering them rhythmically and randomly from a MAX/Msp patch, enhancing the rich layering and repetitive energy of the images. |
