This second installment of the Detour series invites the viewer to revisit the perceptual experiment conducted in Detour 1 only instead of presenting the images in a rapid succession, here they are slowly fragmented almost like a puzzle occasionally coming together to form complete images. The video consists of footage acquired with a computer screen recording program which captured the visual distortion generated when a tape containing alternate takes of the Detour 1 performance was fast forwarded through a tape deck while the signal was still being fed back into the computer. The new recording which resulted was then slowed down considerably, broken into clips and slowly dissolved between one another using a variety of transitions and blending modes available within Final Cut Pro. Like Detour 1, the resulting video was then “performed” by scrubbing the playback marker back and forth across the edit timeline in order to ‘shuffle the puzzle pieces’ only this time it is also allowed to roll naturally for extended periods. The soundtrack consists of an acoustic guitar improvisation recorded in my backyard with nature and city noises in the background.
