Description: An 8K, five-screen video work presented in 2023 at Outernet in London. Because the five massive LED screens envelop both the space and the body, the work was designed to create an image-viewing experience specific to that environment. By combining techniques of continuity and discontinuity, and through a series of images in which the movement of color changes every second, this experimental video work explores the possibility of inducing a state of perceptual dissonance—where the body’s internal sense of time becomes irregular—and, by filling the gaps in sensation that arise within that state with a field of light moving in an extremely gentle manner, whether it might be possible to transform the viewer’s perception of time after the viewing experience.

This work is based on an original interpretation of Night on the Galactic Railroad. While the original has a strong pastoral image, I also wanted to add an urban image to it from my own perspective. By the way, the one skating through the galactic city in the work is Campanella.

I created this music video by combining visuals I personally like to match the theme of VSQ Strawberry, a free VSQ audio track.
