The second part of a series of cinematic notes on everyday life. Here, Jochen Kuhn presents an intimate scene in a dark examination room where a man undergoes a medical procedure with a modern device, revealing images of his mind. This is part of Kuhn’s series on everyday social events. His work, characterized by a strong sense of intimacy and intellectual irony, uses the disappearing image technique to create mysterious stories.

He employs a 35 mm camera to over-paint images, leaving traces and scraps that carry forward, showcasing a thoughtful approach to film in a fast-paced editing era.
