Knight has captured six hours of restless sleeping that culminates in a tangled blur of sheets.  And, the still image gives the viewer an accurate document of what has occurred.  Interestingly, despite the accuracy of this visual document, the blur or disappearance of a discernible figure gives the viewer a better concept of restless sleep.



CONVERGENCE - Xavier Chassaing

Xavier Chassaing - Scintillation (2009) Film-Still
Scintillation is nearly a traditional film.  It is composed of over 35,000 still photographs that Xavier Chassaing took while also implementing intricate projection mapping onto his subjects.  Chassaing's way of organically building this video piece from still images allowed him the opportunity to record challenging visuals. He also has more control over the pace of the work and visual effects without sacrificing clarity of image.  This is the modern digital zoetrope blown apart with a total confusion of media.
