Goodbye Pig (2020)

Goodbye Pig Goodbye Phil Goodbye Sweet Things that Once Were A reminiscence of an unknowable past An homage to pigfill aka slug a reinvented film an invented manner of preservation A found footage film constructed almost entirely of decayedabused fill The fillonce spliced into 16mm magnetic audio tracks of another filmhad been stored in a wet basement Water damage had caused the two to stick together I was asked to replace the fill in order to transfer the audio to a digital medium for preservation purposes I removed and spliced the bits of discarded picture together and projected it in an effort to gain some understanding of the original footage Later I reprinted it via the optical printer fascinated by the bits of picturepast left unobscured by the residual blotches of mag and in doing so I literally watched its continued demise its further fall into chaos Anna Geyer
