Kinescope is a curious piece from 1991, like a secretive glimpse into the mind of Eino Ruutsalo. It’s experimental, really, weaving together discarded bits of his work with some kinetic art thrown in for good measure. The pacing is deliberately erratic, almost like a dream that’s not quite coherent. The visuals? They feel raw, enhanced through the physical manipulation of the film itself – trampling, tossing. There's a sense of fragility here, a meditation on creation and destruction. It’s not your conventional animation; it feels like Ruutsalo is inviting you to witness his process and his thoughts on the medium. Definitely an exploration into what film can be, rather than just what it is.
