Clockwork: Shampoo by Finley + Muse, 2006

http://www.finleymuse.com/ Clockwork by Finley + Muse is a series of four short multi-channel video works, each shot in a location where physical touch between individuals is routine, yet highly charged: a dentist's office, a hair salon, a massage therapist's studio, and a teenage boys' slumber party. For each piece, multiple cameras are used to record a half-second of video every thirty seconds over a 16-hour period. The resulting works restructure the long arc of these intimate relations, revealing otherwise invisible habits of work and play.

Shampoo (2-channel) Around a salon chair, two hair-washing sinks, and before a maze of mirrors, a stylist attends to her many clients.
