Plot Summary
Eight-screen installation. An original 15-minute video clip of a street scene at a crossroad was captured and was played on a 25-inch TV screen. One corner of the TV-screened footage was filmed again to produce the 2nd video footage. This re-filming process repeated 7 times using the same focal distance (of the first re-filming's settings), and 8 video footages in 7 generations were produced. The images and sound became more abstract each time. The video installation was first staged in Hangzhou in 1996.
