Using images and filming of one of the spy holes I edited a short film using IMovie. I experimented with my portable projector, projecting into a small box space but the images were too defined. When projected through crumpled sheets, the image was too blurred. I preferred the image through two flat silk sheets because it seemed to create a visual echo of the original image. I also wanted to add sound to the images.
I had some recordings of someone speaking Czech, footsteps, a clock ticking and jingling keys which had a double meaning, both unlocking doors and telling communists to go home. I had distorted these sounds in various ways and edited them into the film using IMovie. I wanted not only the visual image to be distorted but also the sound too.
