fooling into berlin (alexanderplatz)

piano fool

The initiation for this video was ‘remake and redo’.
We choose to work from Peter Land’s ‘Pink Space’

(thank you mr peter land)

It was the trashy asthetic, the slapstick humour and the simplistic task for the performer that was so engaging; from this we extracted the key elements of the asthetic and set the following rules for ourselves
  • keep the camera static, in the same place
  • set the rhythm using in camera edits
  • keep the route of the performer the same each take
