  • I AM THE CAMERA: Designing a site-specific screen work (2024) author(s): Nathalie S. Fari published in: Research Catalogue
    The site-specific screen work I AM THE CAMERA proposes how a specific place, in this case, the Hasselblad Memorial at Götaplatsen (Gothenburg, Sweden) can serve as a basis for generating a performance and/or documentary material. Drawing from site-specific performance, performance documentation and filmmaking, it uses the framework of a performance laboratory to explore the relationship between embodiment and audio-visuality; especially by experimenting with how the interplay between three characters and their technological devices can contribute to develop a performative and cinematic language.
