Scoreline is a solo film-sound performance. 25 minutes.
Requirements:
A dark space (the darker the better)
A screen or white wall.
An open space in front of the screen – for mobile version, see below.
1x Eiki 16mm projector (with sound, focus and stop lever functioning) model can be RT, RM, NT etc… not a slot load machine. Spare lamp and drive belt .
D.I. box for optical sound output from projector to mixer
1x P.A. with full dynamic range (subs etc)
Greg Pope to supply :
Mixer –small local mixer with L+R out to go into main mixer
16mm film material for loops
2 x 16mm daylight spools
1 x film scratch devices
4 x contact microphones (– for input to mixer)
Rotary tool kit for manual film manipulation.
1 x 16mm splicer.
Guitar pick ups (input to mixer)
The Set Up depends on the space.
I can do a static version - the projector on a table in the middle of the audience, or in front. I have can do a mobile version which requires a work trolley (if available, see pic) , then I mount the projector + mixer etc on the trolley and move it through the audience.
This is the best version and requires long sound and power cables to the trolley.
Equipment: 16mm projector, black film, contact mics, guitar pick-ups, engraving tools, , loop station, hobby grinder, scratch board, mixer, amplification, unspecified local materials.
Idea: The film projector as an instrument for visual and sonic broadcasting, an exploration of cinematic apparatus, ignoring traditional strategies to create a dynamic live event.
Outcome : Texture and noise. A choreography of creation through destruction, amongst other things.
