An Infinite Line: Brighton (2008) - installation

An Infinite Line: Brighton Super Cine projection Installation by Fevered Sleep

An Infinite Line: Brighton was commissioned by the 2008 Brighton Festival, as an exploration of and response to the quality of natural light in Brighton. The project was in three parts: a site-specific performance piece, an installation of 8mm cine films, and a book.

The installation for An Infinite Line: Brighton took place in the same space as the performance, during the day.
It consisted of thirty 8mm cine projectors, projecting short films depicting the light falling on the natural and urban landscapes of Brighton.
Ranging from the abstract (light as a wash of colour on the churning surface of the sea) to the literal (the mirror ball turning slowly on top of the pier) the films, projected onto blocks of chalk -- like the chalk of the local cliffs -- created a flickering and constantly changing environment of colour, light and sound.
