Abstract
The Clock is a video installation in which the fictitious rhythm of celluloid is humanised through a narrative that operates from the anachronism of the appropriation of archive images. Marclay uses in his montage different mechanisms of narrative, sound and visual dislocation which, together with the anachronistic use of the filmic image, generate a heterochronous experience in the spectator. The result is the generation of an alternative to the concept of normalised space-time, which is re-signified as a multi-rhythmic and heterogeneous concept, offering the possibility of thinking another reality that gives us back the autonomy and control of its experimentation.
The Clock es una videoinstalación en la que el ritmo ficticio del celuloide se humaniza a través de un relato que opera desde la anacronía del apropiacionismo de imágenes de archivo. Marclay utiliza en su montaje diferentes mecanismos de dislocación narrativos, sonoros y visuales que, unidos al uso anacrónico de la imagen fílmica, generan una experiencia heterocrónica en el espectador. El resultado es la generación de una alternativa al concepto de espacio-tiempo normalizado que es resignificado como un concepto multirrítmico y heterogéneo, ofreciendo la posibilidad de pensar otra realidad que nos devuelve la autonomía y el control de su experimentación
