VOID is the result of a five month experiment in which artistic collaboration is limited to a virtual space. Artist's live on different continents and the internet is the only meeting point. Through this process, we have explored improvisation by utilising live video and sound feeds. Using layered recording and other data resulting from the accumulated volume of audio and video files, the project in itself has become the digital waste 'by-product' of it's own experiment. The film is a juxtaposition of the actual waste material and footage which documents the collaboration.
Duration 7:42 minutes. Master Edit Ref V27 Trzebinski Version. Upload: 15 August, 2012.
