oldnewgifs


speaking at Materials Research Exchange 2020 has meant that I've had to create a number of gifs created from films I made as part of residencies at Kings Robotics department and NanoDTC and a show in Cambridge with Art Language Location. It was interesting to revisit the work, choosing clips to make into endless cycles offers a moment of reflection, a strange lingering or stillness gives the chance to rethink them.
meanwhile - I've made a list of a number of non-English speaking series on Netflix and at present working through episodes of Nobody's Looking, which is fun, it's a typical 'person out of place' narrative with a twist. Pedro Almodovar's Pain and Glory was a gloriously layered film with the last scene bringing another layer of meaning to the work. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8291806/
