3:53 
single channel video / stereo sound


developed as part of a residency at Paradise Air, Matsudo, Japan 


the first in what became a series of video pieces connecting my interest in gesture with the design of and interaction with urban architecture. 

these pieces explore my role as tourist and non-tourist - aspects of otherness, both literal and perceptual. The interplay between the visual and the field recording soundtrack, recorded in a different location, acts as a device for our relationship to 'other'.
