The Pixelated Revolution. 2012
(Still from the video lecture)
Installation in multiple parts about the extraordinary documentation of deaths in the Syrian Revolution, made by the victims themselves by filming the act of shooting with their mobile phones.
The notion of the cell phone becoming an extension of the body, the way in which such "eye-to-eye" encounters are captured in film and reality, the movement of the cell-phone user, and the pixelated, blown-up face of the killer are explored via video footage downloaded from the Internet, juxtaposed with fictional material, as well as flip-books and a hand-operated 8mm film.
