“DoublePsycho”(April Mix) by Andrew Neumann
“DoublePsycho” is a video projection which fuses the original Hitchcock film and the Van Sant remake. By cutting between every few frames the two meld into one, erasing the 40 years that have elapsed between the two films. Usually performed live, this piece and others (“Split:Riddle”, “FaceOff”), are realized using laptop which controls video switcher, allowing for precise control over transition rate and other parameters. This piece is not as much about narrative as it is about the iconic nature of “Marion Crane”. Her face essentially defines this work; the fact that forty years later Anna Heche replaces Janet Leigh almost identically with the frame gives this new version cause to reflect, as she now appears almost as her doppleganger. For this evening, Neumann will be showing a recently realized version which runs approx. 25min.
