Memory fade

Película realizada por Carl Brown en 2009.

Sinopsis
En su obra a doble pantalla, Brown trabaja y retrabaja la imagen a través del procesado manual, tintado y coloreado. Escenas ricamente texturadas de desastre y destrucción, incluyendo metraje de noticias del 11S se repiten implacablemente, formando un lamento por la falta de memoria y la desvaneciente razón de la humanidad. Con composición sonora de Dan Browne.

Notas
'In my latest work “Memory Fade” the images are not lost…they are spectral and the dance steps repeated over and over in time fights the Fade – a falling down that breaks the spine of the book of life (mankind). Nightime stay “Yes”…are there really “better angels of our nature” nasal and distant the sound of the migratory mind search – I need to relearn the route – the electricity has been losing juice – still a third rail running through my brain causing the 400 agitations of Julie…a real separation of colours…time gets rooted and stalls a little bit of grey matter dies – part of the Fade – the over medicated culture of society – the pharma fog contributes to our cyclic emptying of tragic past events and there it goes again before we know it we are in another former deja vu again man versus man versus nature the essence of the organics…the transformative alchemy…I need a tool to dislodge clogged synapses and arteries…perhaps a snake…ecstatics make the engine run dilation of the flesh…maybe it’s true through the emptying of self loss of memory the fade of pain mankinds reason
…bare witness to middle age human kindness through destruction. - Carl E.Brown

It's starting to rain again; it's—the rain had (uh) slacked up a little bit. The back motors of the ship are just holding it (uh) just enough to keep it from—When began to create Heaven and Earth was then without form. And void. And darkness was over the deep, and breathe hovering over the waters. And said “Let there be light.” And there was light. And saw the light, that it was good, and divided the light from the darkness It's burst into flames! It burst into flames, and it's falling, it's crashing! Watch it! Watch it! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get this, Charlie; get this, Charlie! It's fire—and it's crashing! It's crashing terrible! Oh, my! Get out of the way, please! It's burning and bursting into flames; and the—and it's falling on the mooring-mast. And all the folks agree that this is terrible; this is the one of the worst catastrophes in the world. indecipherable its flames... Crashing, oh! Four- or five-hundred feet into the sky and it—it's a terrific crash, ladies and gentlemen. It's smoke, and it's in flames now; and the frame is crashing to the ground, not quite to the mooring-mast. Oh, the humanity! and all the passengers screaming around here. I told you; it—I can't even talk to people Their friends are out there! Ah! It's—it—it's a—ah! I—I can't talk, ladies and gentlemen. Honest: it's just laying there, mass of smoking wreckage. Ah! And everybody can hardly breathe and talk and the screaming. Lady, I—I—I'm sorry. Honest: I—I can hardly breathe. I—I'm going to step inside, where I cannot see it. Charlie, that's terrible. Ah, ah;—I can't. Listen, folks; I—I'm gonna have to stop for a minute because indecipherable I've lost my voice.
