Journeys in travel: a recombinant, computer-controlled cinematic essay
journal contribution
posted on 2015-10-02, 08:45 authored by Christin BolewskiThe video installation Journeys in Travel tells a story of travel and investigates
relationships between travelogue, cinematic essay, and digital database narrative. The
open source software “PD,” which is mainly used to create live-algorithmic musical
improvisation and (interactive) music composition, controls here an infinite
audiovisual narrative. It is a temporary, open-ended arrangement, which sets in motion
a seemingly endless chain of references to related topics: Being elsewhere in foreign
places, tourism, ethnography, globalization, a hyper-connected world, reality and
simulation, movement, pace, rhythm and the relationship of film (structure), narrative
and travel.
