WE LIVED LIKE STRANGERS

“We lived like strangers” is a restless stream of conscious and seemingly unconscious images and notes, that explore the distance and interaction between the “I” and the “Other”.

“We lived like strangers” is an audio-visual project created by Giorgio Bosisio (film) and Daniel Kidane (music).

The project was commissioned by New Dots and premiered at Kings Place (London) on 3rd November 2014 at the event Interference Patterns. The composition was scored live by Ensemble Matisse.

I collaborated with contemporary classical composer Daniel Kidane developing an audio-visual piece for several months. Super8 footage I have been collecting travelling around Europe found their way through the musical arabesques Daniel has created. A new thing for me, something more instinctive, non-scripted, more challenging. A research and a tiring journey through the psychological cycles of life and days: a ritual of conjuring memories.
