Shinkansen

Shinkansen is an experimental film combining images filmed at night in a high-speed TGV (Shinkansen) between Tokyo and Sendai and the glitches of a dysfunctional LCD screen filmed in a downtown street. A hyper- technological megalopolis dotted with giant screens and lights, Tokyo reveals itself here with a disturbing face, like the omen of a future already realized. The soundtrack is composed of electromagnetic waves and radio waves captured in urban spaces and expresses the sensory and energetic density of the places.
