Pêche, mon petit poney

Pêche, mon petit poney

2012 • 43 min
The film is the investigation that the director leads on his little pink plastic pony, received on his 6th birthday. He goes in search of the slightest clue to try to find out if this little pony, which he had nicknamed Peach, was really meant for him. Through his encounters, he discovers the codes and stereotypes in force in the world of toys and evokes, beyond the clichés with which he was associated, what Peach really represented for him. Peach was not a simple figurine to be styled. He had become a real confidant to whom he confided his budding desires for boys and his growing questions about the norm of love.

The Handeye: Bone Ghosts

The Handeye: Bone Ghosts

2012 • 7 min
Early 1900s, Robert Musil invites Freud to summon the ghost of Franz Mesmer, discoverer of animal magnetism and forefather of hypnosis. Musil told Freud about a series of dreams, in which a talking flea foretold of impending catastrophes all over Europe, which he wanted to question Mesmer about. It is said that Mesmer obligingly appeared & spoke in a repetitive & oblique manner which was transcribed by Freud in several scraps of paper & hidden separately in a series of objects that would end up in the collections of three Viennese museums. Legend has it that he who could piece together the text would find instructions for the assembly of a film. We visited these museums &, unable to break away the objects from their glass prisons, have made an attempt to reconstruct the film, hoping that the magnetic force inside the objects would transfer to the film’s silver halide crystals, therefore allowing us to make sense of the single written testimony leftover from the séance.

A three-dimensional sequence is generated from raw data. The rendered sequence is projected onto the original scene in the program, rendered again, and projected once again as a shadow map. In this final step, the rendered image is also applied as a texture on the objects in the scene. This repetition produces superimpositions of light, shadow, structure, and perspective, which leads to doubling, deviations, errors, and erasures at various levels, which in turn, feed into the process as aesthetic information. The result is a clouding of the three-dimensionality, an imaginary, unstable, fleeting space, which through continual change steadily constructs, and simultaneously deconstructs new definitions of its components.
