at the edge of England,
a walk along the cliffs
is interupted by a phone call...

'artefacts from an imagined documentary (proposed): one' is the first in a suite of short films that begin to map the territory of a new area of investigation for an un-named Researcher.

Following the film work ‘midnight, mid-Atlantic...’ - in which the Researcher investigates an abandoned film project in Iceland - this new area of research is partly framed by the work of the 19th Century moving image pioneer Eadweard Muybridge. Collectively, this new body of work acts as a meta-proposal for a longer-term project that will explore the collision of histories of the factual Muybridge, the fictional film director Martin MacAnally and the Researcher himself.

'artefacts... :one' was filmed in East Sussex, UK.
