Phi stages geometry as narrative: a visual and sonic progression built on repetition and growth.
Interactive web experience — 3 min. More than six billion hours of video are watched every month worldwide. In that overflow, what can we still really grasp? « Phi » questions our perception of moving images by making their unfolding tangible through a touch interface, and by making our attention a condition of the experience itself.
This chronophotographic walk offers an unexpected point of view on natural and human phenomena, striking in their power of sublimation (close-ups, high definition, work on light). The images come from new kinds of capture that let the eye grasp imperceptible realities: slow-motion and time-lapse for time, macroscopic and telescopic for space — as many ways as the haiku has of catching the rhythm of the world through detail, or through the infinitely large.
Format: touch tablet, or computer (mouse movement) + screen, video projector or large screen; one player.
