Clinch

The read

It runs a compact 5m.

Synopsis

Edited entirely using on-board VCR controls (fast-forward, rewind, pause, play), this video uses material culled from a trance music video and a car factory documentary, set to a remix of a remix of Toto's Africa. The cyclical, inhuman machinery of a factory, repetitive and heavily structured commercialized music, and the cyclical degradation and inevitable destruction of image and meaning under capitalism. An experiment in low quality.
