Aka 赤 is made from 31 meters of hand-painted 16mm film and contact microphone recordings made on a shinkansen/bullet train in Japan. The film explores passage and memory - branching out of a linear flow of time into sensory immersion and temporal complexity. "Aka" is Japanese for "red."
World Premiere: MA/IN Festival + CRM/Centro di Ricerche Musicali, Rome, 2024
