Digital Analogue, A Stop-Motion and Musical Tribute to Analog Cameras
“Digital Analogue” is a stop-motion animated musical tribute to analog photography by Ftjelly. The music in the animation is made entirely from sounds made by analog cameras.
Since the introduction of digital technology the relationship between camera and photographer has altered dramatically. Speed and accessibility have come at the expense of mystery, intimacy and tactility – qualities exclusive to analogue photography. Initially, and in reaction to this cultural atrophy, I composed a piece of music made entirely from sounds that I had recorded from a collection of antique cameras. Constructed using the digital composition software Reason, this piece carried a strong hip hop feel and seemed to connect past with future technologies. To accompany this track I created a video response that captured traditional, analogue techniques yet also had a strong contemporary theme.
