At All Times

"At All Times" is a videographic analysis of the famous montage sequence from "The Parallax View", structured around “Laird’s Constraint," a parametric method for engaging with montage through procedural editing, based on Colleen Laird's "Eye-Camera-Ninagawa." Rather than offering a singular interpretation, the piece stages a performative interrogation of the sequence by visually deconstructing its shots and placing them in dialogue with "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari." This method foregrounds latent patterns of rhythm and repetition, opening space for new affective and analytical insights. The result is not a reading, but a demonstration of constraint-driven videographic thinking.
