BIRDS FILMS




BIRDS 
is about observing:::
the slow glitch  hum
electric murmurations
fluttering distortions
underwater winds


BIRDS is a meditation on observation and perception. We hear the same birds, yet some of us don’t listen. This film embraces the Slow Glitch, urging us to slow down and truly pay attention. Experience the glitch birds and their echoing patterns, where electricity hums like a thousand birds. In this world, birds don’t merely fly – they are flown by the glitch.

Video and Sound Design by Egle Saka 2024, London, UK.

Original footage is a collection of findings on the web. I created this sequence for a special live performance a while back, which involved a participatory sound performance by Tarik Haskic, using clay whistles and organ pipes. Since then, the sequence has been altered multiple times. Some are recordings of me live mixing the visuals, and some are long studio ponderings and post-editing. Sound is a mixture of recorded and distorted sounds and various electronic experiments. I wanted this to sound like a glitchy fluid substance that the birds flutter through. Perhaps the waters blend with the skies. All part of the weird sensitive chaos and an attempt to capture the wild thing somewhere in between the polarities of the analog-digital.
