Each ‘movie’
(replete with opening titles and end credits) combines a live
video feed from Logan Airport in Boston with randomly loaded
net radio sourced from elsewhere in the world. As this relatively
good quality video stream is taken from an existing commercial
website where its visitors are able to remote control the
camera, each ‘movie’ is ‘shot’ and
‘paced’ by its own (albeit unsuspecting) camera
person. |

Additionally, text grabbed
from a variety of on-line message boards is periodically inserted,
appearing like cinematic inter-titles when viewed in combination
with all the other components. The result is a coherent yet
evocative combination of elements that produce an endlessly
mutating edition of low-tech mini-movies that we call, Template
Cinema. |

Short films about Flying
now only exists as a simulated archive because the resources
it uses have now expired online. However we have developed
a sequel called Short Films about Nothing, which you can
find out about here
