Dieter Appelt

Image de la vie et de la mort 1979
(between life and death)

Max's Speed of Light lecture today included the multimedia artist Dieter Appelt, whose work I thought tied in quite nicely with the Matrix scans I played with the other day. Appelt explores the movement of time through use of multiple images. The aesthetic of the film itself becomes part of the work too (sprockets and time codes visible), emphasizing the use of still video frames.
