Installation

Écouter l'artiste

Maziar undergoes electroencephalography at the Human Anatomy Department of the University of Palermo. As he dreams of descending into the maze of lava-carved tunnels in the bowels of Mount Etna, the memory of fire transduces into constellations of sweaty glows and shimmers.

Blending meta-narrative with experimental methods of procedural montage, the film installation is edited by Hypnogram; a custom software composed to analyse the rhythms of the actor’s neural oscillations to edit possible re-combinations of the audiovisual bank recorded above and below the Sicilian volcano.
