I walk, in the night, in the city and I hear televisions. I suppose they all together could tell a story and give me a sign before I get home. It’s like an house inside and its residents’ extension to the outside, to the street and to me. I walk. Like a Ghost. I’m getting inside all these houses… But as I walk, as I get closer, I try to fix them to hear better, see more, more, more…

Experimental documentary, visual poem on the meeting of a city which we do not see but which is present through the sounds and the thermal carthography body imprints of one of its inhabitants.

First part of a larger work, partly inspired by Boris Groys’ “Cosmic Anxiety”. Museums are being transformed into spaces for artificial intelligence. Curators take care of the works. Machines take care of humans.

A video that appropriates the original images of ‘Scanners’ by David Cronenberg. These images were compressed and were underwent , along with the sound, a robotic and repetitive treatment, giving them a new reading.
