A1 5284 – A1 0862 – Rauch­wolken und Luft­schlösser (Clouds of smoke and castles in the air)

For the work “A1 5284 - A1 0862”, a 16 mm pro­jec­tor was modi­fied so that the foot­age was shown in single frames in­stead of 18 frames per sec­ond. The indi­vid­ual images – pro­jec­ted onto a wall in the GAK Gesellschaft für Aktuelle Kunst – re­mained in front of the pro­jec­tor lens un­til they slowly dis­solved due to the heat of the pro­jec­tor lamp. In this way, sev­eral metres of the film ma­terial were trans­formed dur­ing the exhi­bi­tion, leav­ing the actual con­tent only par­tial­ly rec­og­nis­able.

The material used was out­takes shot in black and white at the time of the liqui­da­tion of the Bremen ship­yards. This work doesn’t ex­plic­itly deal with the ma­terial that is changed by the pro­cess. Rather, […] it is about the ques­tions of traces in the ma­terial and the limits of per­cep­tion. […]

“A1 5284 – A1 0862” focuses on the auto­mated pro­cess of de­stroy­ing an origi­nal ma­terial and the crea­tion of a new image and ma­terial level. The con­tent, cap­tured on a medium (cel­lu­loid), is radi­cally re­moved from it. The in­for­ma­tion con­scious­ly stored on the ma­terial is in­evi­tably and ir­re­triev­ably lost. What re­mains is a roll of cel­lu­loid film that now carries new in­for­ma­tion created by chance.

At the GAK, visitors were able to experi­ence this pro­cess image by image. The heat of the pro­jec­tor lamp caused the indi­vid­ual images to ‘blossom’ un­til only frag­ments of the actual image re­mained. In the next step, the ‘de­stroyed’ 16mm film was shown at 18 frames per sec­ond […] and the pro­jec­tion was filmed. The holes and de­for­ma­tions created by the de­struc­tion of the origi­nal film ma­terial now seem to lie para­sit­ically on the actual film ma­terial like ab­stract, ani­mated ob­jects.

Nine metres of the trans­formed film ma­terial, to­geth­er with a DVD show­ing the altered film in full length, are avail­able in a limited edi­tion.

Does a cloud fit in a suit­case? What noises does a kitchen make? What is a scent organ? Where do you sleep during a polar ex­pedi­tion? What is it that glows in the under­ground of Frank­furt? Where is the division be­tween gaps and holes? And what hap­pens when 20 pigeons move into a gal­lery?
