Contribution long abstract:

The presentation will discuss the process of framing and editing an unpublished video article, Landscapes of Memories. The presentation argues the video of the practice can provide a way of looking and witnessing the practice in the studio, articulating that through the process of editing, embodied experience, has a big stake in terms of remembering, reliving.

In the process of framing and editing the video, my collaborators and I became aware of the challenges of what is epistemological viable versus an aesthetic choice. What do we need to put in place in order to create this sense of embodied experiential witnessing of the practice within the studio?

To create a sense of embodiment through the mediated experience of a video article, my collaborators and I had to made decisions on:

1) Where to place the camera in the studio?

2) What footages to use? Can they be used?

3) What sort of framing? Wide-angle shot/ close up?

4) How are the frames edited in order to show the process and then the actual research outcomes?
