MA: THE STONE HAVE MOVED

by Takahiko IIMURA
2004 / Video / color-b&w / silent / 1 screen / 10' 00

My latest film was "Ma: The Stones Have Moved" (2003-4), an animation film in which the outline of the image of stone garden was traced on computer. As the result while the camera-crews moved in actual film-making, the stone, the drew-line moved in animation. This changed entire point of view. This is because only the outline of stones was extracted, and the drawing of stone was animated without any background nor foreground picture.
In the animated image, the outline of stones was drawn continuously like "Ippitsu-ga" (one stroked drawing) with a breath and made fade-in/fade-out effects in every one second. There was a continuous rhythm like breathing. The rhythm of "Ippitsu-ga" would be found in their pulsations of drawing with fade-in/fade-ut effects.
