I have a fixed idea about the screen that while it has no depth we know that it is sprayed by 24 frames a second at the same point for an infinite amount of time Were it possible to freeze into a solid the sum of all the images the screen would be seen as a limitless freezer of frames Even more so when the screen is a screen of a screena condition approaching the simultaneity of electronics The usual battery of devices Super8 16mm and slide projectors A constructed series of film loops with scenes of everyday life slowing down and accelerating the events on a solitary screen so that life as it has been staged gathers itself up in a perpetual serial process of selfediting On the tv screen a face is pierced through by the small filmic screen
