Infodemic, pandemic, pandemonium.

One day, there was a problem while rendering the edited image. Usually, even though the video is not played back, Split frame and green flicker(R:1 G:137 B:1) occurred on the screen. This work is similar to a stuffing that sampled the errors of digital algorithms.

Andi and Mara, two young leftists, steal a flag with the symbol of the Iron Guard from a group of far-right sympathizers. This sets off a chase and a discussion about the political identities of everyone involved.

"[An] experiment that aims to highlight the number of shots of a specific scene [from Hitchcock's Psycho] by replacing the shot of the image with several of the credit titles from the same film [...] An early work, which would be the first official of Pinent's filmography, made when he was only 16 years old, [...] Two years away from Matthias Müller's 'found footage' reference work, 'Home Stories' (1990), a key piece in the genre." -Center de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona

The fifth cartridge exposed by Yonay Boix’s super 8 camera offers a continuation of the author’s filmed journals that he carefully composes frame by frame, exploring the potential of celluloid and in-camera editing. This time, the leitmotiv is either a spot of light or a dark spot that he generates using a pierced piece of paper and a glass filter onto which he has previously painted a black dot, respectively. These procedures trace back to the mechanisms of early cameras, reminding us that what we see is not the world but the glimpse of it that a contraption was able to catch.
