Phnom Penh Drift

Phnom Penh Drift explores the topography of Cambodia in fragments of color and light. The composition is visually structured by an act of wandering beneath a variety of materials stretched over the peripheral corridors of Phnom Penh’s Central Market, Psah Thmei. Fabric, umbrellas, and tarpaulin are the patchwork through which different scenes appear. The direction and speed of this video are determined by my cursor movement along the horizontal axis while the vertical axis controls brightness. Finally, sound is generated from scans of the video image processed through a series of oscillators.
