The film, in her own description “grows from a microscopic cell division into a living, surging image-stream of incessant transformation. Sheer intuition, embracing emotion and the significance of interpreting dreams pulsate within it. The emblem-like symbols, mythical symbols of animals and man, reminiscent of the archaic figures of people of nature, appear in an all-embracing organic frame, perpetually taking shape, arousing the notion of cave-aperture or the womb”.
The video Joe Evans & Wojtek Rusin made for “Hard Bodies” by KATAPULTO (Wojtek Rusin’s sole music project) has plenty of that early MTV otherworldliness.
Nice Datamosh/remoshed Kaleidoscopic video by datartist Phillip Stearns. A remix of Idle No More, by Stine Marie Jacobsen, for the 2013 Turku Biennial in Finland. Bonus: check out his Pointer Feedback:
Oh, let’s keep it light and poppy this week. And good luck to anyone out there getting these kinds of looks from your significant other. I’ve certainly been there before.
Thank you, Jared, for showing me this one.
Some serious psychedelic time wrap in this video which was shot slow motion in 5 seconds spread on 3:30. In a way this can be similar to what happens to time perception in a psychedelic experience…

The hand is a critical interface to the world, allowing the use of tools, the intimate sense of touch, and a vast range of communicative gestures. Yet we frequently take our hands for granted, thinking with them, or through them, but hardly ever about them. Our investigation takes a position of exploration and wonder. Can real-time alterations of the hand’s appearance bring about a new perception of the body as a plastic, variable, unstable medium? Can such an interaction instill feelings of defamiliarization, prompt a heightened awareness of our own bodies, or incite a reexamination of our physical identities? Can we provoke simple wonder about the fact that we have any control at all over such a complex structure as the hand?
