“Chronic” explores the idea of body as machine. It is inspired by the work of Etienne-Jules Marey and Eadweard Muybridge, who studied motion with photography before the advent of motion picture cameras. Copied on a photocopier, the images in the film have a high contrast, low-res look that refers to the developing technologies used by these photographic pioneers.
