This is a project based on an anthropological investigation of the collective gaze. How are our visual perceptions adjusting? How do symbolic structures connect to each other? How do the visible and the invisible work together? How do memories, desires, subjective projections and common obsessions function as a dynamic ensemble? Based on different precepts, research contexts, and creative parameters, the materials archived, annotated, and edited here seek to set visual precedents for a delirious age in a form of an intersectional, experimental and engaged research. 

The first step in this process involves the development of the trilogy Le Grande Banlieu. The project culminates by presenting films generated with found footage and collective filming of explicit scenes from three directors who left unfinished projects: Sergei Eisenstein (The Capital), Pier Paolo Pasolini (Oresteia) and Orson Wells (The Dreamers).

Other projects are based on specific contextual needs and urgent political assessments. To make them possible, the starting point is the creation of qualitative archives from which editions that explore a plurality of meanings are generated.

The project is a collective research proposal, generated by Javier Toscano*
