Session by Observatori de Video no Identificat
A compilation by the Unidentified Video Observatory. Built, on the one hand, from moving images from the early days of cinema, when the interiority of the image and the representation of intimacy in front of the camera reflected a humble innocence not yet reduced by the technocratic context of the medium. On the other hand, this compilation contains the punctual contrast of synthetic contemporary imaginaries in what we could consider a dissolved intimacy of the image. “The outer garden” captures landscapes and residents from two distant eras. Between the deaf ferocity of contemporary media and the silent image of the early cinema. A practical essay on the phantasmagoric interiority of the early moments of the moving image and its disintegration into trends and behaviors of disoriented crowds among media mirrors.
