1999-2000, N8, 9min30sec, silent, b/w

Four diary records. ‘Autumnal Garden’, shot in the garden of the Cimelice castle, based on accelerated light-tonal changes during time recording. In ‘Train ride’ the multiple exposure shot from the window of a moving train also uses the reflection in the train interior. Together with the picture outside the window we can see a reflection of the picture outside the opposite window. ‘Interior’ is a study of light-changes in a simple composition of a room corner, ‘Backyard’ expands the principle of the first part, using various apertures and focusing.

Film of kinetic pictures dealing with Herakleitos’ notes. In the color part of the film the masks are applied frame-by-frame, through which a transparent strip is colored by low-concentrated colors. The black and white part uses similar masks in the place of plastic stencils: the shapes are engraved into the black ground through a thin layer of matte located under the film.
