FILM

According to Paul Virilio, “it is no longer only the night sky that is threatened but indeed the night itself, the great night of interstellar space; that other unknown quantity that, nonetheless, constitutes our only window on the cosmos.” What is left to us of the nightly celestial roof after years of light contamination is made clear in this film, the result of seven years of field recordings. The soundtrack, a composition of VLF (Very Low Frequency) radio recordings, is the work of Peggy Ahwesh.
