Kamali/miphotobook

Concept / Content Idea / Relation to form

I want to make a book out of film stills. I'm fascinated by the interrelationship between photography and moving image. Where does photography stop and film begin? and vice versa.

For the first experiment I chose a short iPhone video I took last summer. It's of mosquitos flying around.

The book contains one second of film, which is 29 film stills. I printed them on semi transparent paper.

First Result

One second of mosquitos flying around above my head

Further experiments

One second of mosquitos flying around above my head but in gradient.

Visitors: mosquitos and a text

I get welcome kisses from my family and from the mosquitos I hope the dog still remembers me When I wake up the next morning I won't know where I am I do not put on any shoes It's 7 am, the tiles in the garden won't be too hot to step on yet Sunrise is my favorite but sunset will also do Soon my jetlag will be gone and I will not be able to get up so early And I'll have to put on some shoes I hope the dog will remember me I get goodbye kisses from my family and from the mosquitos
