Urban Drift (Weekend Watch)

November 27th, 2010

A haunting beautiful and somewhat psychedelic perspective of urban time and space.

From the artist:

I drift, half awake, half asleep. Moving through the city I recall but have never been to.

“Architecture is the simplest means of articulating time and space, of modulating reality, of engendering dreams” Ivan Chtcheglov

This film was made using a digital stills camera to create a stop motion animation.

I’m looking for a gallery to show this on a full HD screen as the resolution of the original is fantastic even compared to Vimeos delicious HD!

This video is an evolution of an earlier work/technique called Still Moving

I think the shot of the Barbican tower is my favourite (it’s the shot shown in the thumbnail)

See this at the streaming festival
