Abstract (engl):
In an improvised performance DJ Elbee Bad shares his ideas of a music video clip. He develops a vision of a common video shooting with Shakira before the story takes a surprising new direction. Time- axis manipulations, screen & character multiplication and cinematographic design in 2&3D add new form- and content defined levels to the protagonist's story telling. The multi-screen installation in its forward looking 48:9 format can be experienced in a selective & non-linear way.
Kurzbeschreibung (geman):
In einer improvisierten Performance erläutert DJ Elbee Bad seine Vorstellungen von einem Music-Videoclip. Dabei entwickelt er eine Vision von einem gemeinsamen Dreharbeiten mit Shakira.... bis die Story dann einen überraschenden Lauf nimmt. Zeitachsen-Manipulationen, Screen- und Personalitäts-Vervielfachungen sowie zurückgenomme 2 & 3D Elemente verleihen der Erzählung des Protagonisten zusätzliche Form- und Bedeutungsebenen und machen die Multi-Screen-Installation im zukunftsweisenden 48:9 Format selektiv erfahrbar.
