TIME FRAME - Anne-Marie Culhane & Bob Levene

Bob Levene & Anne-Marie Culhane: In the Blink of an Eye from National Media Museum on Vimeo.

Time Frame by Anne-Marie Culhane and Bob Levene is a meditation on our perceptions of speed and the relationships between body, movement, image and time.

The artists worked with world-class sprinter Leon Baptiste to create this work.

The athlete was trained to slow down his movements while remaining in constant forward motion.

Our sense of speed changes as technologies advance. We live in a culture that values speed. What does it mean to slow down? This work was especially commissioned for In the Blink of an Eye by the National Media Museum, with the support of imove.
