BACKGROUND
SHOT
SAVER
WATCH

SCREEN is a window. IT adds to reading motion a processing extension. Sum of visions, cuts, collages.

As registration and display surface area, IT assumes a third logic: an INTERFACE that would open access to something else, neither here or behind or inside.

INTERFACE, IT mades of any object an a priori image, a GAP that must first agree to the image lifetime principle, that precedes and resists it.

This intelligent MECHANICAL, able to simulate and universalize its language, would be a step ahead. Formers prisoners before of their physical configurations, forms would explode.

The screen is no longer an area of contemplation or projection. IT is an INTERFACADE, a place of SATURATION, overlays, dissociations, duplications. A visualization passage abolishing itself as screen to feed its three-dimensional content.

Run out, produce, think in an active relationship to the virtual. Measure one’s immersion into one’s ability to make something grow up on the other side.
Dissect the old image and create "effects" of reality, big amplifiers with combinational logic. If.
Relocate oneself and find a warm place in the quadrilateral.

The surface as a powerful background.
