Animal Migrations (and why they don't get lost)

Peer Bode

1985 | 00:11:30 | United States | English | Color | Stereo | 4:3 | 3/4" U-matic video

Collection: Early Video Art, Single Titles

Tags: Animals, Found Footage, Memory, Video History

"This is the first of a set of pieces that involve combining a series of electronic video process recordings, musics, texts and appropriated materials. These multiple elements, simple and tricky grammars, trigger expanding electronic narratives. The trajectories and drags of multiple narratives color the electronics and visa a versa. The piece is the scene of many animal migrations unpacked as sliding tropes and grammars: diagrammatic sound image complexes, crawling texts on time query, circus performers, astronauts, psychologist fathers, texts on mathematical computer graphics woven with scenes of mid-Century artist monkeys a la Life magazine and painting machines... Oh my, o you, o them."

– Peer Bode
