A collective undertaking, La Chute attempts to show the passing of time through a media lens. By stretching 10-second video pieces over a 10-minute span with different software strategies application, we come to see what the lens sees, to distinguish time between the videograms. 8 screen or video artists have been paired up with 6 sound art artists. Each of the artists has produced a very brief sequence of about 10 seconds, which are then “stretched” to create a 10-minute sequence. Each video and sound piece may be matched by the listener:  so there would be 6 x 7 matching sets of a particular sound track with a visual image.
