Codex
London is cut up and manipulated in this highly structured, emotionally compelling piece about the UK's capital city and its capacity to alienate and atomise people. Images printed using custom-made equipment at the London Filmmakers' Co-op stagger forward and back in precise rhythms and establish both a spatial and emotional map of the various night-time locations seen here.
