erase remake is the film version of a performance that Jan Machacek and Martin Siewert first presented in 2006 in Vienna and Trento (Italy). A camera module, mounted inside of a scanner, renders precise close-ups and pans of its surroundings. The picture source “scans” the body of the performer, placing it in a charged field between live-action, recording, and reproduction. The music by Martin Siewert employs various improvisation / composition / reproduction techniques – a sounding out of possibilities for the reproducibility of note, sound, and song structures. "erase remake" directs attention to detail and micro-structures, subjecting spontaneously generated images to extremely diverse scenarios of acceleration and deceleration. What emerges is a quasi-archeological occupation with the relationship of one’s own identity to the body. (Jan Machacek, Martin Siewert)
