Project Detail

Kaleidoscopics

Synopsis

Kaleidoscopics brings together pornographic stills from the internet and bubbles at the edge of running water, putting both through the same digital processes. Eyes, faces and limbs surface and sink again in sequences of coloured tessellations, lead by a music soundtrack that overlays breathy sound with formal patterning.

Specto Specto

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2025

Ampersand, 1978, re-purposes clips from a 1974 film I never completed. In Specto they are re-purposed again. The hot tungsten filament of a Specto film projector is a recurring image, along with re-worked clips of a troupe of actors performing Artaud’s Jet of Blood at locations in the city of Lincoln. You’ll see the cathedral and a dilapidated mill with UNSAFE 74 painted on its wall.

South Kensington South Kensington

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2024

A street corner near the London underground station. It’s on the route to the Royal Brompton Hospital, where open heart surgery is carried out.

a sum of parts a sum of parts

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2024

The “parts” are a painting of my own from some time ago, a waveform whose origin I don't remember, and a travelling letter “x” that suggests a stitch bringing them together, though what actually does so is almost certainly the Bach soundtrack.
