AB/CD/CD, On Hold, 2011.

An endless staircase, smashing plates and slapped faces coalesce into an exploration of repetition and narrative in French filmmakers AB/CD/CD’s On Hold. Inspired by Michael Haneke’s 71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance—in which the main character plays ping-pong against a machine that is throwing balls to him in a never ending loop—AB/CD/CD’s Arnaud Boutin, Clement Dozier and Camille Dauteuille devised a series of repetitious sequences and scenarios to shoot over a couple of weekends. Set to English experimental electronic act Factory Floor’s “Real Love”, the resultant scenes play off the track’s polyrhythms to generate a hypnotic tension. “When you listen carefully to Factory Floor, you can detect that it’s live, it’s not only a cold sequencer playing, it’s organic,” explains Clement. “They are actually playing that track as the actors are re-doing their movements.” The band were taken with the way On Hold’s collage of unrelated loops played with narrative, explains Factory Floor guitarist and vocalist Nik Void: “It’s not far from how our music works, it gives space in the viewer’s own mind to imagine and conclude what the context is about.” Having made videos for the likes of Lily Allen, Uffie and Josephine de la Baume’s Singtank, AB/CD/CD are currently wrapping up films for New York concept-store-turned-brand Opening Ceremony.

Seung Yong Song, “Object-O”.

I have memories that I made a den somewhere in my house as a child- Under the table, in the wardrobe, and in the attic- I created my own base and felt relieved as if I avoided enemies that were actually non-existent. My own secret space at the moment which was comfortable and protected, better than a huge mansion, the coziness of the space like a bird’s nest isn’t what we dream basically?

I began writing messages I would send to a person who died just before I was born, or to a person who will be born right after I die. How do you compress thoughts about life on earth into 250 ASCII characters? Ultimately they morphed into poems and pieties. They draw our attention to the past, the present and the future we may face.
