COLONEL KORSAKOV (1992)
Video installation, S-VHS, color 30 min

The video installation Colonel Korsakov was a study for a character from the theater play “From all those who have nothing to say, those who keep quiet are the most pleasant”. The installation consisted of the tv screen, mounted on a chariot, driven by an electric engine and a mechanism to let it drive around in at random directions. The image on the screen were 'talking brains', two brain hemispheres that were manipulated by the sound pulses, filmed live and this image was sent to the monitor. The sound was a speech of a drunk man in combination with a sound mix.
