BETWEEN YESTERDAY & TOMORROW May_be OKI HIROYUKI／5'00"／digital／2011 about "BETWEEN YESTERDAY & TOMORROW" I began wonk on the “BYT” series in 2008. the essence of the “instruction sheet "that requires contributors to record commentary on the day before and the day after filming is based on the idea of “the visual experience of gazing at the present while superimposing the past and future.” I was also conscious of such things as the relationship between the vividness of the individual's voice and the visuals and a structure that injects into the work the motives and considerations of the artist. The instruction sheet was originally for my own use, but after completing a number of works I came up with the idea of asking others to contribute pieces, Some two weeks after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, I hit upon the idea of publishing the “BYT” series on the Internet, and asking filmmakers I trusted to contribute was a natural progression from this. While the filmmakers were not required to address the earthquake and tsunami or the nuclear accident, on viewing the first ten or so contributions I sensed that the project unintentionally served as a record of “Japan in 2011,” Looking at the works again, it also seems that few of the contributors were conscious of making “one work as part of a whole.” Without doubt, each of the contributors used this as an opportunity to encourage audiences to think about “recording and creation” in filmic expression. If “recording” entails turning intangible things into subjects that can be confronted, then perhaps “creation” in filmic expression entails searching for ways to share the results and render them corporeal.
