Dual Channeled Video Installation (InSitu)

The mexican museum of antique toys (MUJAM) is a special place, indeed. On nearly 3000 m2 it offers enough place to apply probably any kind of concept. I chose to create a kind of confusing work, again shifting time by a recorded HD video feed, but this time yuxtaposed to a "rear window" of a realtime video feed.

What is used as a projection room for movie-evenings has a special conditions: a door and a window which are filled up with bricks and a layer of concrete on top. These filled gaps were used by Jens Kull to project on. As if there would be no concrete the door is showing an HD video of what's on the other side, recorded one evenig before the opening, the window gives a noisy realtime NTSC view of what is on the other side, a video feed that is created by a wireless camera signal.
