Sonic Youth at Hammersmith 86

Michel Henritzi plays with the energy of broken music from the 45 rpm "Brave Men Run (In My Family)" with a radical technique which intensifies the sound explosions and coordinates and accelerates the collision of the images drawn of the film. I used a scan to work on these images, filtering them in black and white, increasing the contrast and mixing them with my other reels made during my American travels. I was looking for construction lines revealing the chaotic rhythms of my visual experiences to assemble with that of this super8 of a Sonic Youth performance, it is a hymn to chaos but also to a rediscovered freedom. – Raphaël Maze
