«INDOCAM» is a video about the travels of a Swiss Artist from the US to India, candidly shot with a cheap Chinese watch camera, experimental and biographical in genre, composited frame by frame from shaky footage and an erratic codec. Raw and undisturbed, with no apparent presence of a camera, «INDOCAM» spins a subtle and engaging thread along the artist's fortuitous crisscross with other private, public, cultural and political figures in the US and in India, both revealing and disquieting.

I often consider how brief and random encounters can change the course of one’s destiny and what, if anything, will be changed or influenced as a result. INDOCAM is an experiment to capture the unforeseen reality unaltered by the apparent presence of a lens.
