SMART PANTHEON (short version) Original

2016, HD video, 5:50, b/w, stereo. Director, concept, camera, editing, effects, sound: Myriam Thyes. 2nd camera and 2nd sound recording: Monika Pirch. All kinds of people are using their smartphones. The displays don't show any apps - only the sensual movements of hands. Each pair of hands plays both roles from Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" at the Sistine Chapel: God the father and Adam, whose fingers touch each other. Smartphones are the new saints to which we cling and who guide us on our ways - they are the amulets of our time. http://www.thyes.com/relations-polarities/smart-pantheon/index.html
