GMU:Hallucinating computers and dreaming non-machines/Mahla Mosahaneh: Difference between revisions

I wanted the process of creating Sinechak to grow from the same state of openness and uncertainty. I began without a fixed plan, taking daily notes, writing, recording sounds, and experimenting with different materials. The first visual form of the project emerged through collage experiments, as I tried to give shape to the idea of formlessness. I did acts of deconstructing and reconstructing photos, mostly from geographical books with natural landscapes.

As the last stage, I brought in my reflection of form using videos from my personal archive and layered them in fragments with collages. Then recorded the different notes i wrote during the project to compose the sound and narration with  David Muñoz Hasselbrink and created the final video.

My vision for the installation was to project the video onto a wall accompanied by a two-channel sound composition played from both sides of the space. A mirror is placed in front of the projection, inviting the audience to watch the video through reflection. As they do, their image becomes part of the work, a living collage within the larger composition. suspended between the screen and the mirror, between the image and its reflection, between form and formlessness.
