“Samplings” is an experimentation to explore the relationship between sound and visuals. It is generally understood that we perceive visuals as the main clues in perceiving the world and sound accompanies as a secondary element. In visual media, sound also is mostly a secondary consideration.  It is not to challenge the hierarchy but for the sake of experimenting, I am inverting it. Using video I am fixing the visual to a single point without any camera movement and open our perception to the sound that occurs in the same space. I am using the enigmatic relationship between sound and image that exists in the postcard to further stir our reflection upon what we hear and upon the subjectivity of perceiver.

The project is ongoing and adheres the following rules:

• fixed camera
• sound and image recorded in the same place at the same time
• no editing
• a discrepancy between sound and image
