Gabriele,

You might be interested in a work of mine:

Transit(ive)  HD video created from 16mm projection performance with digital 
sound, recorded on digital video. 06:36.  2017. 

A video document of death, loss and relation that queries the ontology of 
objects (human bodies “dead” and “living", machines, film, video, artifacts) 
and their communication with each other. Transit(ive) records an encounter 
between myself and that-which-my-father-had-become a week after his death. Made 
by shooting a digital video of my embodied encounter with a constellation of 
interrelating objects: the digital audio recording I’d made of my father’s 
dying breath; clear 16mm celluloid leader; light moving from a 16mm film 
projector’s bulb through the leader that thread past the lens and then onto a 
wall; my own body; the projector lens I was manipulating; and the DSLR camera 
that reinterpreted the artifacts of light and sound. The physical manipulation 
of the lens of the projector connects the fleshly body to the body of light 
through the body of film. My fingers, no longer able to caress his face, 
caressed the lens.
