Automat
2010, colour video projection, 6
channels of sound, 9:00 minutes,
4 framed etchings, 55 x 76 cm each.
A
panoramic video projection shows a static shot of people entering and
leaving a building lobby that houses automatic banking machines.
The opening and closing of the doors provides the rhythmical structure,
the score, for the video. The sounds captured during the recording of
the images are played back, synchronised with the video.
Inserted over the ambient soundtrack is the sound of chimes. The chimes
correspond with the opening and closing of both sets of automatic doors.
Presented with the video is a series of
4 etchings that illustrate the various positions the two sets of
automatic doors can take.
Exhibited at Galleria FAFA, Helsinki,
Finland, July, 2010.
