The Recognition Construction: Hyojyutsu (Against Application or Mimesis) (1975)

Directed by Morihiro Wada

Overview

A member of the collective Video Hiroba, Morihiro Wada also used video in his solo projects. In The Recognition Construction, each subject entering the frame is identified by a narrator, while the video camera slowly rotates. As the rotation speeds up the identification becomes more difficult, and the objects ultimately become “indecipherable.”

Length 20 minutes
