OTHERNESS:
IT’S INTENSE BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING
LISTENING CIRCUITS X EGLE SAKA
The film explores the concept of 'otherness' by visually disrupting still photographic images, transforming them into chaotic movements. The soundtrack, created using a raw generative system for modular synth, comprises granular textures, tumultuous beats, and audio feedback.
In depicting the global state of uncertainty and emotional detachment experienced during the pandemic, this film sequence portrays the loss of a sense of time and the inherent human yearning to inject normalcy into disrupted mental states.
It examines the paradoxical stillness of elements we perceive as ever-moving—such as wind, air, water, and nature's elements. While these phenomena continued their existence, our bewildered perceptions painted a picture of stagnation. The imagery chosen to accentuate this juxtaposition includes motionless windmills, stalled cloud movements, stagnant waters, and inert soil, all emphasizing the stark contrast between our perceived reality and the natural world's ongoing continuity.
