Video comprises a performance of 'Amplification', which uses the car accident as a metaphor for mental/physical disassociation. 'Amplification' examines the threshold of the human body's response to sound, light and physical impact. Developed through research conducted at a hospital emergency ward and the Melbourne morgue. 'Amplification' magnifies the the 1.6 seconds disassociation freeze time which occurs at the moment of impact. Contains nudity. This is not the same performance recorded on M800/7/29. Anyone requiring access to this film should contact Manchester Archives and Local Studies in advance on 0161 234 1980 or at archiveslocalstudies@manchester.gov.uk.
