Marcus Kaiser chooses the format of the video \u2013 image and sound \u2013 to retransmit the topographic displacement in its own temporality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like a\nphotographer scouting for the preparation of a film, be it fictional or\ndocumentary, the artist documents the scene and uses the animated photographic\nrecording as a tool for observation. But these images do not belong to him.\nThey are the property of Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These two\nalgorithmic excursions carried out not by bodies but by machines are performed\nin the virtual space called Google Earth. It is a software allowing a\nvisualization of the Earth from a superimposition of aerial photography,\nsatellite images and geographic information system (GIS) data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Modeled in\n3 dimensions, this virtual world is composed like a collage \u2013 a patchwork \u2013 of\nimages coming from different temporalities, assembled little by little in the\nmanner of a puzzle of which it would always miss pieces. Past, present and\nfuture are thus mingled in a space about which it is difficult to determine\nwhether it is continuous or discontinuous. Some vacant parcels or gaps are\nfilled with strange, almost fuzzy graphics, or with monochrome flat areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This\nintricacy creates an uncanny feeling because the limit between reality and\nabstraction is thus canceled by the virtuality of an autonomous space visibly\nunder construction. Oscillating between soundscape and musical language, the\nfour-handed soundtrack by Marcus Kaiser and Jens Lohwieser ends up encouraging\nthe impression of disturbing strangeness by circulating in a spectral setting,\neven a landscape of war strewn with ruins, thus ironically modifying the\ninitial goal of this computer program signed Google: giving an accurate\n3D-representation of the Globe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(En anglais) texte introductif au catalogue du photographe Marcus Kaiser&nbsp;Two walks, Mars 2018.
