“In 1997, I was offered to make a video for a remix of the song by Iosif (Joseph) Davydovich Kobzon from the movie “Seventeen Moments of Spring”. I was given several Betacam cassettes with recordings of concerts by Iosif Davydovich. And somewhere I got a film on four three-hour cassettes. In addition, I had a Video8 camera (the format that replaced VHS at that time). I filmed DJ Grove’s epic performance on East Beat (festival) with it. And I made one more shoot in the Port Club: a girl dancing against the background of screens that project a concert by Iosif Davydovich. I edited the clip at the Znaki studio. In those days, you had to buy a special card to digitize the video into a computer. The customer liked the video so much that I was ordered another one for the song “Spy”. These clips opened the Russian MTV that appeared at that time”.

VHS cassette camcorder

A video-investigation of trivial objects and substances transformations into abstractions and the fact that sound can completely change the image. Hypothetically, sound is stronger than image. Observation of image/sound contrasts: shadow of water on transparencies/Kodo drums; “Rotation” of grass seen from a car window/experimental jazz; flickering images/rain drops sound; glare of flowing water/recitation of Japanese poetry; etc.
