having the trial result of the previous idea was not satisfactory, i decided to take the idea further to an indirect and non-interactive approach to the project, by setting up three screens to show how i spent my days randomly in weimar, suggesting the feeling of allienation, losing in time and space. | |||
concept: | |||
replacing dialogues from my previous experience which is familiar to me (language-wise) to the present expereince i have in weimar which is not comprehensible. it is how i usually make sense of something i cannot understand. sometimes in real life, the images can be a separate track for comprehensing experience, by imagining an audio that i understand, i can therefore make sense out of the things i see, though it can be totally unrelated to the actual happenings. | |||
presentation and content: | |||
the 3-screen installation shows two particular things i did on two random days and one of the screens shows a collage of the people i met in weimar. | |||
screen 1 - the screens | |||
a collage of the footages of a worldcup game (germany vs ghana) that i was watching, including livestream, TV, youtube highlights, fifa (playstation), while the audio was taken from the same match on the same day and time on a tv channel in macau that i used to watch football games, which is in portuguese. | |||
2. screen 2 - the park | |||
it shows what i saw on a random day at the park - some german boys were chatting and chilling out. as a foriegner in this context, i wish i would understand what they were talking, so i tried to recall some movies i have seen, looking for a memorable dialogue that i have come across, so that the images i was looking at became meaningful. | |||
3. screen 3 - the girlfriends | |||
a collage of distorted close ups of the girls i met in weimar, who i spent most of my time with. none of us know each other‘s first language, but we communicate well with our imperfect english. still, music is the best common language, to express our emotions, to show passion to one another. it also shows my view on how a person perceives vibes; from a normal pace and tone before processing to a slow motion, altered pitch chanting while the mind processes a melodic expression. | |||

Theme: A 3-screen video installation, loop
nicht blind, mute und deaf
background:
having the trial result of the previous idea was not satisfactory, i decided to take the idea further to an indirect and non-interactive approach to the project, by setting up three screens to show how i spent my days randomly in weimar, suggesting the feeling of allienation, losing in time and space.
concept:
replacing dialogues from my previous experience which is familiar to me (language-wise) to the present expereince i have in weimar which is not comprehensible. it is how i usually make sense of something i cannot understand. sometimes in real life, the images can be a separate track for comprehensing experience, by imagining an audio that i understand, i can therefore make sense out of the things i see, though it can be totally unrelated to the actual happenings.
presentation and content:
the 3-screen installation shows two particular things i did on two random days and one of the screens shows a collage of the people i met in weimar.
screen 1 - the screens
a collage of the footages of a worldcup game (germany vs ghana) that i was watching, including livestream, TV, youtube highlights, fifa (playstation), while the audio was taken from the same match on the same day and time on a tv channel in macau that i used to watch football games, which is in portuguese.
2. screen 2 - the park
it shows what i saw on a random day at the park - some german boys were chatting and chilling out. as a foriegner in this context, i wish i would understand what they were talking, so i tried to recall some movies i have seen, looking for a memorable dialogue that i have come across, so that the images i was looking at became meaningful.
3. screen 3 - the girlfriends
a collage of distorted close ups of the girls i met in weimar, who i spent most of my time with. none of us know each other‘s first language, but we communicate well with our imperfect english. still, music is the best common language, to express our emotions, to show passion to one another. it also shows my view on how a person perceives vibes; from a normal pace and tone before processing to a slow motion, altered pitch chanting while the mind processes a melodic expression.
