My camerawork and sound design for this installation captured Rauer leaping, jumping and crawling through the empty space of a blank, sunlit studio. Four video projections were arranged throughout the gallery along with four televisions of various sizes. Viewers were surrounded by stuttering sequences and asynchronous rhythmic gestures, unable to see all screens at once – or any screen in isolation. From rafter-mounted speakers emerged closely-miked recordings of separate but similar movements, mixing with the small scattered synchronous sounds on television monitors. The gallery space was filled with creaky footsteps, bodily thuds and breathing.
