A self-surveillance video, shot in one take, exploring the limits of visual and aural perception. “The simple immediacy and eccentric austerity of the direct approach superficially contrasts with the abstract complexity of his other film works, but it shares their indeterminacy. The act of videoing is unplanned, a performance in itself, the results are fortuitous. In the silent Myeyeye the camera is the ‘wrong’ way round but the ear is clear, in focus, drawing attention to the act of shooting as much as any ostensible subject.” – Steven Ball
