Just Ancient Loops
The 26-minute ?Ancient Loops? merge old images depicting the beginning of time with digital reconstructions of the universe. With the help of an imposing score, they constitute an abstract audiovisual experience of unfathomable beauty.
As proven in previous work where he unearths archival footage in partial or total decay and breathes new life into it, Bill Morrison perceives celluloid as a mysterious entity that has the ability to transform itself and, most importantly, fight against non-existence and the corrosion of time. Exploring uncharted territory in people’s subconscious, his creations take on the dimensions of a dream-like spectacle that triggers emotions and associations that are hard to put into words.
True to his modus operandi, the 26-minute “Ancient Loops” merge old images depicting the beginning of time with digital reconstructions of the universe. With the help of an imposing score, they constitute an abstract audiovisual experience of unfathomable beauty. L.K.
