A physical film for showing at cinema. The soundtrack, which was mainly produced in the range of frequencies below 1000Khz, physically vibrates the viewer's body. Anti-cosmos means similar with Noise, the power that breakthrough the cosmos/order. Inspired by "Cosmos and Anti-cosmos" by Japanese philosopher Toshihiko Izutsu. The soundtrack, which was mainly produced in the range of frequencies below 1000Khz, physically vibrates the viewer's body.

In this surreal documentary film, the producer, writer and artist discusses a selection of objects related to her work with close friends and collaborators.

"A challenging soundtrack by English that combines swooping drones with high-pitched electronic tones, feedback style ringing, and buzzes of radio noises, all create an unsettling accompaniment to Northey’s visual manipulations. Slow moving shapes, abstracted forms rendered as bursts of coloured static, memories of signals lost in the ether. When everything has been destroyed, when the sun transforms into a super nova and the solar system is annihilated, all that will remain are the broadcasts, getting increasingly weaker as they flow further into the universe, joining the background static. The beauty of electronic decay." - Jack Sargeant

Filmado inteiramente em locações na Austrália, Fase Dupla segue uma cronologia visual discreta capturada por Takashi Makino. Ele considera como a complexidade do "mundo natural" continua a ser redutivamente enquadrada na sociedade contemporânea.

Cansado dos campos de arroz, Chakra deixa o Camboja para trabalhar numa fábrica em Bangkok. Depois de pagar para atravessar a fronteira de balsa, Chakra acaba indo parar em um navio de frutos do mar, onde a violência e o assassinato são frequentes, tudo sob a vigilância de um capitão cruel e sádico.

Music by Lawrence English, 16mm film by Paul Clipson.

The leopard shall lie down with the goat. The wolves shall live with the lambs. And the young boy will lead them. 12+1 kids and the carcass of a whale washed ashore…

Clipson, like some reckless traveller driven by a Mabusian force, takes us on a journey, hypnotically guiding us through a realm of dreams that seems to consist solely of light, shapes and colours. Shot on and screened from film. Soundtrack by sound artist and composer Lawrence English.
