MOSAIK MÉCANIQUE
Synopsis
All shots of the slapstick comedy A Film Johnnie (1914) are shown simultaneously in a symmetrical grid, one after the other. Each scene, from one cut to the next, from the first to the last frame, is looped. A pulsing visual polyrhythm is produced as a result, because of the shots’ varying lengths.
