Presque Vu
(2016)

Endless audio cassettes, 2 four-track cassette decks, custom video software, synthesizers.

A piece in which the visuals react to its sonic counterpart. With music created using field recordings and resonances recorded in Guangzhou, China and stored on cassette tapes, film material of an early China under Mao Zedong (~1945) will be influenced, slowly uncovering itself like old 16mm film burning in reverse.
