disapperance

Description (in English)

Everything disappears. Recordings of our voices will become archeological remains, and a spinning record yields fossil waves. Waves is based on three poems by Tor Ulven. Published as part 8 of the electronic poetry film series Gasspedal Animert, intended for electronic distribution through the internet, the film combines text, sound and digital animation. This particular film is a collaboration between the small press Gasspedal and the publishing house Gyldendal.

An animated adaptation of a poem written by Claire Donato. Cascades of textual progressions -- appearances, disappearances, fades, mirrorings -- are scripted in detail and played back by a custom Java engine across two "pages." The work was presented and read by Claire Donato and Ian Hatcher at ELO_AI 2010 in Providence.
