Fragments

What remains after a film that can only be seen once? Fragments is a visual exploration of memory, technology, and the fleeting nature of live performance. This exhibition showcases a series of generative artworks born from HERE & NOW’s high-stakes “Live Cinema” events by Andreas Rau. Using a custom algorithm to “witness” the performance, these pieces capture moments from a film shot, edited, and screened in real-time. Each artwork serves as a unique digital artifact—a permanent echo of a cinematic experience that has otherwise vanished.
