Poetic Dialogues 1.0
20th May. 2002
I have never been good at defining something as art. I think I have always been uncomfortable with the word since it's use is so greatly exaggerated. The following does catch my interest though but I think if the scope was greater it would be far more engaging.
This project is constituted by 18 different flash movies made with a high-tech wristwatch camera. Each flash movie has a sequence of images taken frame by frame of people reciting a verse that I previously wrote. So, even when I employed a sophisticated machine to do this work, the process was the same that was used at the begining of cinema. When you enter the project you will see 3 different faces that establish a dialogue between them. The interaction among the characters generates a poem. Also, the number of different poems/combinations that you can get is 216. This metaphorical process of using a watch to create dynamic poems was taken from a previous work called ‘the poetic clock’, a machine that converts time into poetry which generates 86.400 different poems daily.
