American Singles (Ian MacTilstra, 2007)
“American Singles” is a structural film; it was made from bleach, nail-polish remover, and processed cheese on microwaved kodachrome film, all items that relate to the consumptive Global/American diet, lifestyle, and economy. It invites the viewer to reflect on the nature of contemporary life in the west and the disjointed relationship that can be experienced between the subject and the objects he consumes.
this is a bad acid trip!
