Experimental Studies on the Seeing of Motion1

'What it means to read - the attenuation of a gaze where language blossoms and disappears, dancing with a concept that inspires the visibility of a yet unnamed thing - is an activity undergoing constant historical mutation and renewal.'
D.N. Rodowick

Shooting Footnotes:
Starting the process of editing a large amount of footage shot at the Lakeview Theatre at Middlesex University's Trent Park Campus. A single session on Feb. 6th produced an enormous amount of material which I am beginning to use by separating into sections and identifying stills. I am particularly interested in tracking the pathway of eye movements in response to different sets of stimuli, such as reading and active watching of movement. Performers are Dominique Bulgin and Isobel Cohen. The title of the piece is taken from Max Wertheimer's work of 1912.
