Artist Clones Himself to Create Choreographed GIFs
Video artist Erdal Inci clones recordings of himself to create bizarre and eerie GIFs. Using those multiple recordings, Inci creates looping performances that look choreographed.
On art and design site Ignant, Inci is quoted discussing his work:
I realized that if you clone a recorded performance contiguously it will become perpetual. So that you can see all the time phases of the same performance in a small amount of time like 1 or 2 seconds. This gives you the chance of thinking like a choreographer with a mass crew or painter who fills its frame not in forms and colour but motion. At this point I could tell I am inspired by patterns in traditional arts & crafts , dance and repetition. Motion, performance and real environments are the outlines of the work.
