Antonio Di Biase, Davide Perego / Italy / 2021 / World Premiere / 17 min.


synopsis

A group of jazz musicians come to a recording studio to play a jam session together. Their improvisation is matched to the rhythm of a tape of freely available footage from security cameras around the world. People and animals, city and nature, joys and tragedies. In conjunction with music, the videos are stripped of their original surveillance function and become vague, abstract, liberated images.  


„All the images are taken from the public webcams-live available online, from all over the world."
