An infinite horizon line and the image of continuous waves... Experimentation with the vertical displacement of the image of a 35 mm film. 35mm film has four perforations per image. If the perforations are offset from the projector window, the image is split in two on the screen: for example, in a face image, the eyes are at the bottom and the mouth is at the top; The image has two displaced parts. To avoid this mistake, this multi-image movie uses collage. The filmmaker assembles an image by perforation (the normal technique is an image by 4 perforations). Therefore, there is never a vertical shift in the projected image.

A typical university study trip. The camera is the gun, the lens is the muzzle. While moving with this in mind I shot a lot 8mm continuously. Stop-motion documentary with a keen sense control the camera freely, swinging the timing to press the shutter subtly adjust to the subject and boldly change. It produced unique movements and images.

Accumulated in cardboard, a pile of unused negative film, snapshots, student ID photos, etc. These were all shot for purposes completely unrelated to film. When I decided to "get rid of it," I had an idea. A discontinuous sequence, film that does not have the frames of a normal movie. What happens if you film it? I couldn't sit still any longer. Then, I diligently pieced together these short negatives, it was compiled into a film. In other words, it is a work that uses waste materials. To add some flavor, additional photography was done with a half-size camera.

This film was very delicate to process because of the static electricity that sucks up dust. The filmmaker wanted to keep on the screen a kind of dust protection that would be the equivalent of human eyelashes. This is why eyelashes appear continuously throughout the film. The image of the comb, which gradually becomes a musical instrument, was also indispensable. The dust gradually covers the image. The sound is also dusty. Suddenly, the image splits in two and the time of the cinema begins to double.

Movie
What is a frame? He attempts to make a film that doesn't have the normal 16mm frame. He also doesn't respect standard recording principles. Thus, a distinction must be made between: - the real time during which he films the object (himself) through his camera. - the time the film is recorded. These two periods do not always correspond to real time. The image must illustrate the search for these different notions of time. To achieve this, he experiments and places a 16mm film on top of a 35mm film during the shooting.

After directing Kami eiga (Paper Movie in 1972, which used paper film), I ended up with a dead track with Kanko eiga (Sightseeing Movie of 1973). Ideas no longer arose. I realized that I needed a fresh start to make films, and I thought that carefully studying the object that is a second, the most basic unit of time, would allow me to do things again, to find a new way of living. That's why it can be called an exercise. It's a film in which I say to myself: it's a film; that's how the second is, that's what happens when a photogram is over. When the twenty-four photograms are passed, the film is finished. I had fun making this movie. It is a film for which nothing knows anything about the cinema or begins to study it. It tells us what the film is, and how it is done.

Production without taking or developing photographs. This is the ultimate experimental film because it is screened using the original raw film. At first, the emulsion surface of the film was milky white, with each projection, it gets burned and darkened. The impression of the work changes subtly each time.

When you watch a film projected on a screen, the emulsion itself, which is a photosensitive emulsion, there's nothing to be conscious of. I like the emulsion itself. Take it as an image to emphasize the film as an object, Apply the emulsion directly to the film with a brush. Changes and unevenness appeared in thickness: dots, lines, bubbles, etc.
