Energy

Synopsis: 

Physical laws are the basis of our being. In particular, the various forms of energy enable life and evolution, social communities and communication.

In this context, Energy is an audiovisual essay that attempts to present various aspects of energy in a concrete and an abstract sense. The concept for the representation of these facets is a rhythmicised auditive as well as visual web of sounds from 12 cellos, natural sounds and video sequences that immerse into the macro- and microcosm of our surroundings and environment and make the poetry of the physical world visible.
