The film shows the performance in Tiergarten in Berlin on saturday december 18.
This film version lasts 1mn46 s. I switched on the rapid button in editing. The real speed of the action is 35 mn. If you are interested in seeing the original film you can take contact on aaa(at)abtffn.com.
Here on this version you can see a lot of different things moving at different speeds like my trembling body is the movement of my breathing as I lay in the white hammock stretched between the trees over the white snow.
“As I lay on the hammock filming, the vision of the Andy Warhol film “Empire” came to me. Maybe I should not speed up my film and rather slow it down ? Anyway, I kind of stretch further on the observation as Warhol did with his film…
He films the time changing slightly by the light darkning the picture with the steady shape of the Empire state building.
I film the earth movement holding the camera, sitting in the hammock. In my video everything moves not because I make it move, but on the contrary, I hold the camera as steady my body is able to and then I am able to move the camera by holding it steady on the sun and in that way catch the earth movements. The camera becomes a tool, an earth-movement-catcher. It also shows other movements, the people on it, the cars, my own breathing movements in the steady but hanging hammock, the trees passing in front of the sun.. “

ouou ! nice Bottlemailman ! Thanks ! Can you see how the rythm moving my boding is at the same speed that the other persons rythms mand speed passing in the picture ? Amazing I think. It was interesting editing to discover this and then it is of course easier to see the earth’s movement for us still slow though. I have speeden the film up in the first part where it says 1mn46.. It is exactly the same as the one coming after where it say 35mn33.
