Drawing from guides as varied as children’s cartoons, Tibetan mantra meditation, social-media based ads, and drone metal, Train of Interference visualizes the invisible overlapping of worlds, images, and distinct building blocks of language in the pursuit of generating a form of utopian moving-image-based poetry. A lengthy split screen image of two train tracks running alongside each other serves as the centerpiece of the film, generating an ever forward-moving space for the viewer’s own individual inhabitance and visually guided meditation. Forced momentum through a gradient between two concurrent planes in space-time. The first fifteen minutes stand as a primer for this experience. Images flash by in slow motion; an examination of a fractured, cloudy, ever-morphing, collective mental landscape. The film serves as a lens to view the technological present as well as a deceptively simple map towards the future.
