A Distant Encounter

2016

Informations

A Distant Encounter is based on a Youtube video. We see a camera looking through a sniper’s telescope. A farmer is in the center of the viewfinder. This video is slowed down in order to increase the tension.

A mise en abime of gazes happens, between the reflection of the camera in the telescope and the farmer’s look at the end of the video.

A Distant Encounter is part of the installation Collateral Visions which explores human singularity inside algorithmic and computer visions.
