Facsimile

An experimental digital film exploring technology as a medium of human perception.

"Dan Inglis' precise Facsimile (2009) seems to represent the human receptor as a distanced, alienated subject. Through the magic of cinematic framing, composition, editing, and sound the ordinary becomes, in Inglis' hands, something special."
Martin Rumsby, 'Genres of New Zealand experimental film', ONFILM (March 2010). http://centralarchive.co.nz/?webid=ONF&articleid=48425

"Some exceptional films were on show including... Facsimile (2009). Facsimile progressed through associations of sound, vision and text, each commenting on the other to create something intangibly recognizable."
Martin Rumsby, 'Diary of a Viewer: Part Four, Auckland, 2009', Illusions Magazine No.42 (July 2010).
