Study of Time & Space

16mm film looping projection / Series-in-progress

Size Variable

Height of a single 16mm frame = 7.49mm  
One second = 24 frames  
One meter = 5.5s

Paced along the wall, the camera starts rolling at one point and it stops filming after circling the site. The logic for the works in Study of Time & Space remains consistent: the perimeter of the venue determines the length of the film to be used, and the filming duration is based on the wall length. Objective spatial attributes are quantified as time in the realm of moving images, meanwhile fully constituting the image itself. Time, activity and content are interconnected as a documentation of space. The physical materiality of film is not purely a reference to length.



一幀16毫米底片高度 = 7.49mm  
一秒 = 24幀  
一米 = 5.5秒

攝影機沿著牆壁前進，繞場地一周以後，停止拍攝。《時間與空間習作》系列遵從的邏輯一致：以環境的實際周長決定所用底片的長度，拍攝時長因應牆壁闊度而定。空間的客觀條件被量化為流動影像上的時間，同時也全然構成了影像的內容。時間、活動、內容互相串連為空間作紀錄，底片的物質性不是單純有關長度的參照。
