On one roll of Super 8 film, 15m (50ft) = 2.5 minutes, at 24 frames per second.

I walked 15 meters over 2.5 minutes of an entire roll of Super 8 film outside the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), where the international system of units, including standardized time and length, was developed and defined. The forced synchronicity premised on the structural materiality of film interrogates the notion of measurement, standardization, adaptation, and embodied experience.

在超8毫米底片上,15公尺(50英尺)等同于2.5分钟长度。 
我在巴黎市郊的国际度量衡局外,以一卷超8毫米底片为长度,行走与2.5分钟底片等长的15公尺距离,以单一镜头拍下此过程。BIPM是国际度量衡局的缩写,为制定时间和距离等标准化国际公制单位的科学研究组织。

我透过强行叠合的时间与空间测定,在电影物质性结构的基础上,探讨测量、标准化、适应和身体经验等概念。
