As part of the Lyden af Ruinerne artistic project, Halibut Film activated a Farm that involved six AANT students from the three-year video making course in producing photos and video footage.
Goals:
Creating a multimedia installation that answers the question, ” Is it possible to change the view, look at the ruined places, re-imagine them, and give them new meanings?”
The Farm:
“Lyden af Ruinerne” involved AANT students in poetic, musical, visual and anthropological research. An interdisciplinary project balanced between a video poem and a documentary, to create a film product about Rome. The project stems from the suggestion of Jean Grenier, who, in his book “Mediterranean Inspirations”, defines Greek and Roman ruins as empty entities that can only “accommodate”. The artistic research of “Lyden af Ruinerne” moves around the poetic image of a ruin/sponge to experience how Rome, an open-air ruin, can absorb and encounter the lyrical and Danish language. The result is the combination of contemporary Danish poetry with images of Rome’s ruined spaces to recode them and relate them to a cultural elsewhere.
