Documentation

It was the first project we developed in the frame-work of zeitgenossen.com. The central idea was to combine web-specific art and media theory. This went along with the intention to describe our present.

Formally we worked on the synchronicity of image and sound, the construction of depth perception and the ”menu-free” screen.

INPUT

The project Distant Heat, exclusively conceived as an animation of letters and text, visualises three stories in parallel. The dramaturgy links the individual texts while also "giving meaning" to the words and sentences, thereby conveying that they have a sensual life of their own. Letters as media visuals emanate an emotional force that is communicated irrespective of their reference to text.
