Insistent Clamor
Fans of films may find Insistent Clamor especially interesting thanks to its engaging atmosphere, visual presentation, and entertainment value.
This work is derived from one of Jacobs' Nervous Magic Lantern performances, which are created with a hand-manipulated projector and use neither film nor video. Highly stroboscopic and hallucinatory, these kinetic performances result in otherworldly spaces and plays of near-abstraction and suggestive imagery. Insistent Clamor features an evocative musical score. This recent work highlights Jacobs' relentless experimentation with the very fabric of projected light.
