Description

As a child, I used to watch Thomas the Tank Engine obsessively, and during my youth, I was disturbed by the uncanny faces and expressions of the trains. Sometimes, I'd even have nightmares about them. Returning as an adult to watch some episodes, I found myself not less disturbed from my mature perspective, but even more so. There is something indescribably unsettling about them. My idea was to capture some of the subconscious feelings I had about the faces in my glitched distortions. The result was short but succinct. I wanted it to begin quietly, building to a sharp, unbearable crescendo of static noise, with a growing awareness among the trains as if they had just become aware of something outside the confines of their eery dimension. // *Video clips taken from internet archive *Outputted using an EASYCEL HDMI to AV adapter *Inputted into Hither Dither by Somfay *Inputted into an Osprey 100e PCIe capture card *Recorded with OBS *Imported into After Effects where I trimmed the clips *Static audio was made using Audacity
