Simple in its conceit, the installation consists of a six-minute audiovisual loop comprised of three archival film segments shot by the Edison Film Company between 1889 and 1901, and six passages from the opening pages (or overture) to Marcel Proust’s monumental À la recherche du temps perdu, as read by Vancouver writer Gerald Creede.
