One or more fragments of text or words
spoken simultaneously are alternated with short silences
of a few seconds. These sound-fragments have been taped from existing
TV-programs, selected as to subject, emotional value and sound, and
subsequently added together to a rhythmically breathing entity. During the pronouncement the words or sentences
are visualised as text. (Alongside: JA....., JÁÁÁ...
, yes..... , pronounced simultaneously by different persons, with
conformity in emotional value) Divided over the three monitors or
three video projections you can see the picture of a human body, with
the atmosphere of an X-ray. Movement and interruption of it, go exactly
together with the rhythm of the texts. All pictures are entirely in
red. |
