2011, 16mm film, color, silent or sound, 12 minutes. Lightline is a “prepared projection” work in which the intermittent mechanism of a regular 16mm projector has been disengaged, thereby allowing the filmstrip to slide uninterruptedly through the gate and pressure plate assembly. The verticality of the filmstrip’s passage through the projector is the subject matter of the work, emphasized not only be the absence of intermittent motion which normally arrests the filmstrip into so many frames-per-second, but also by the placement of a Plexiglas cylinder directly in front of the lens, thus elongating and stretching the light source.
