Leftovers

Images of a lively train station. People are seen who wait, walk, buy food and newspapers, or take the phone. These objects are doubled by their real equivalents which are put as shadows into the Super8 projection beam. (The Super8 projectionist is unfortunately not seen in this video.) This conglomeration is again projected over the heads of the ensemble.
The musicians are doubling the noise of the projector, they imitate and embellish its sound. Then they also double the gesture, they put their own objects into the projection beam.
This matrix of tautologies is untied by a multiple stack of 'One-Note'-pieces by Scelsi, Grisey, Berio, Jobim and Ligeti.
