AMSTERDAM CAMERA VACATION

THE CRY

Ria Pacquée
In various outdoor locations, a cry is performed. As the locations differ – under trees, in a rough wooden structure, in a field – the distance of the performer from the camera also differs, altering the volume and proximity of the sound. The performer also varies the vocal qualities of the cry, including its length, tone, pitch and volume...

Mass movements are both exciting and frightening to look at, as their mere existence questions the notion of singularity, and of the individual...

SLOW OBJECT 04

Edith Dekyndt
'Slow Object 04' is close-up video and it shows a delicate manipulation of an ordinary round rubber band bobbing up and down in slow motion.
