Overview

Human eye movements are similar to the way pigeons and chickens shake their heads. I wanted to capture that restlessness in a video. I held an 8mm camera in my hand, placed it on my head, and filmed while walking down the street. I projected the film on a screen, cut out the image to capture the movement of the eyes, and re-filmed each frame. I also made a blinking mask to use in the re-filming.
