"Montefiore Microphone" installation view at Tmuna Theatre, Ultrasound, Tel Aviv 2012


Montifiore is a semi industrial area by day, a mix of car garages, relatively cheap housings, lofts, production companies, clubs. It is situated in the eastern-south part of Tel Aviv. It used to be the first oranges orchard in Israel in 1842. At night, it switches into a somewhat desolate club area.
What i set out to construct was a "thriller" influenced video based only on the emptiness of the streets at night.
Focusing my camera and 2 condenser microphones on empty parking lots, still cars, empty neon lit underground garages, blinking lights of kiosks, empty tall buildings.
I tried to pick up sound beyond my own hearing. A nocturnal drama of emptiness.
