CONfusions
is an experimental realtime video sound portrait of Prague. With algorithmic
deconstruction of architectural photographs the city is reconstructed
in a visual flow which
serves as a metaphor for transition and change. This work tries to catch
the vibe and speed of Prague, steadily reconstructed, torn apart for new
shopping centers, blending all together and leaving the illusion of beauty
in a monotone but colorful self-consuming void.
It is an exploration departing from urban microstructures to a more general
view onto our lifestyles of speed, consumption and visual entertainment.
Analog fragments are melted with digital algorithms to question what is
left ?
