A hyper fiction video based on reality. A micro/macro cosmos of dense urban scape facial texture. A tapestry of the city, relocated, amplified.

Biography
film director
Ran Slavin
(Jerusalem, 1968), a conceptual artist, works with various forms of audio and video,
making use of the interaction between cinema, digital and acoustic music and paint. He’s active in the world’s music and contemporary art scenes, and has created a multifaceted opus that is deeply urban, dark and often surreal. His sound installations are a mixture of sound processes and electro-acoustic manipulations, often based on
piano and guitar. His films, which are considered to be a real exploration of the potential of audiovisual expressiveness, are based on elements like color or the speed of images in a sort of visual and acoustic stream of consciousness. For his particular creations, Slavin has also created a program to control images and audio in real time: a platform in which sound and images are juxtaposed in a flow of images, shapes and surfaces.
