SLOW MARCH in London – 8 min 48 – represents the first indoor roadmovie paradoxically performed and produced in the artist studio in Vauxhall in June 2001. The end result, a hypnotic time-based melody with built-in suspense, is never the less a road movie. It takes the viewer on a metaphysical road, which can be seen as a subjective metaphor for the passing of life. This is not a visual single take that can be carried in our short-term memory, but a hypnotic time-based melody with built-in suspense, which plays with the possibility of a non-verbal vocal communication, and compels us to await its final resolution. A second and third road movie Slow march in Toronto and Slow March in Paris are planned for november 2002 and december 2002 – as outcomes of the performance of ‘The making of a road movie’ in each city. see current projects.
