Video

The experimental video shows a portrait of radio transmission towers: monuments of long-range wireless communication. They manifest themes such as the Cold War, surveillance, mass media, and the construction of reality. The film is mostly shot from the platform of the once most important and now dismantled Swiss radio tower. Through the use of long focal lengths and additional technical zoom-ins, the footage accomplishes that correspondence into the distance that would be impossible to create with the human eye alone.
