‘Les Grands Ensembles’, by Pierre Huyghe

This video shows the reconstruction of an urban landscape in the late 1970s. In constant twilight, two towers converse in a strange code through the light from their windows, produced by the winking of television monitors.

Sorry about the quality, but be sure to watch through the end of the video.

Check these works by Kelly Mark and Nikki Koole.
