Untitled (Fabricated Lifetimes) 2008

Christopher V. Lapa in collaboration with qwux
digitally enhanced found slide images, manipulated sound

Time, b0th abstract and objective reality, detached from memories left behind from the lives of others, we move through the world surrounded by forgotten lifetimes.

Drawing from the work of Joachim Schmid focusing on vernacular slide photography, this is juxtaposed against the methodology of Christopher Cunningham's experimental digital films. The consolidation of these elements with imperfect audio, a derivative of the acoustic phenomena and harmonic resonance experimentation completed by Alvin Lucier, creates a coherent example of the depredation of time on the memories of us all.
