Script 1
2009, HDV, 2 minutes 30 seconds
Script (1) Summer studio is the first in a series of short films, showing the artist making words, relevant to the filmed activity or making reference to filmic terms. The Script series is an attempt by the artist to explore the textuality of the written word while considering issues pertaining to film's specificity. Shot where the artist works they take the form of filmic exercises of studio activity.
In Script (1) Summer studio the artist spells out the word 'twinkle', making pinholes in a sheet of paper. The word and its meaning become tangible when the paper is held up against the light streaming through a window.
In the Script series we witness the construction or reading of words, which are relevant to the operation of each particular short film. There are ten films in the planned series. The sequence includes ‘twinkle’, ‘brilliant’, ‘temps mort’, ‘fin’, ‘actuality’, ‘virtual’, ‘a fold in time’, ‘loop’, ‘déjà vu’ and ‘cut'. The series explores the 'magic' of cinema while pondering the nature of its medium and history.
