Cette pi\u00e8ce hybride est un collage cr\u00e9\u00e9 en assemblant \u00e0 la fois du mat\u00e9riel analogique et num\u00e9rique. Plusieurs couches de films 8 mm fusionnent pour cr\u00e9er un autoportrait sans cam\u00e9ra du cin\u00e9aste. La premi\u00e8re couche est un film orphelin de 8 mm (images trouv\u00e9es) des ann\u00e9es 1970 d’une femme qui danse. La deuxi\u00e8me couche est un film de 8 mm trouv\u00e9 qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 enfoui dans la terre pendant quelques mois. Pendant qu’elle \u00e9tait recouverte de terre, l’\u00e9mulsion du film a \u00e9t\u00e9 attaqu\u00e9e par les bact\u00e9ries du sol, ainsi que par certaines bact\u00e9ries de la levure et du sucre. Cette technique \u00e9tait \u00e0 l’origine utilis\u00e9e par le groupe Schmelzdahin en Allemagne. Apr\u00e8s plusieurs semaines dans le sol, le film est extrait, rinc\u00e9 et scann\u00e9 via un scanner num\u00e9rique 4K. La troisi\u00e8me couche est un film amateur de 8 mm qui a d’abord \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9compos\u00e9 dans le sol, en utilisant la technique susmentionn\u00e9e, puis peint \u00e0 la main avec de l’encre.<\/p>\n

This hybrid piece is a collage created assembling both analog and digital material. Several layers of 8mm films merge to create a camera-less self-portrait of the filmmaker. The first layer is an 8mm orphan film (found footage) from the 1970s of a woman dancing. The second layer is an 8mm found footage film that has been buried in earth for some months. While being covered in earth, the film emulsion has been eaten by the bacterias in the ground, plus some bacterias from yeast and sugar. This technique was originally used by the Schmelzdahin group in Germany. After several weeks in soil, the film gets extracted, rinsed, and scanned via a 4K digital scanner. The third layer is an 8mm home movie that has been first decayed in soil, using the aforementioned technique, then hand-painted with ink.<\/em><\/p>\n
