Tim Feeney [ Caroline ] Caroline evokes the sound and feel of new life in spring, recontextualizing an audio recording of a 2011 northern pond hatching spring peeper frogs via abstract lights derived from a moonrise over 2020 California. Its slow-moving image, generated by pushing a consumer camcorder to its limit of resolution and light sensitivity, abstracts the land- and life-scape of its subject, breaking with a narrative approach to allow a viewer to feel, hear, and see directly. On one hand, in watching and listening to Caroline, we encounter the gap between our physical surroundings and our memories, as we nostalgically re-encounter an experience from a seemingly better, more hopeful time. On the other hand, the film obliges us to confront the limits of technical reproduction, as the comprehensive experience of the film distorts the representation of immediate experience beyond the threshold of recognition.
