A Tama for Ektachrome

When the cinema auditorium is suddenly plunged into artificial darkness, its configuration, the bodies in it, dissolve. The curtain veiling the screen parts, repeating Niepce‘s original rite of opening the aperture plate of the camera obscura just a touch away from a tender virgin flash more momentous than all the constellations that are there for our eyes to feast on. (from Paul Virilio, The Vision Machine)

Film was made during a "Ektachrome Funeral Party", organized by LabA, Athens (Vassily Bourikas)
