ACCURACY TO PHYSICAL QUANTITIES, 2016
During the demonstration of this video, the probability that at least one person, which is able at first sight to understand what this installation is about, has left Russia, tends to unity.
Music:
Mike Naumenko - "County Town N", "ZOO" (1983)


ACCURACY TO PHYSICAL QUANTITIES II, 2018

The second version of the audio-visual installation of Vladimir Smolyar with the original music of the Italian composer Paolo Ricci. Setting the pace, the musical composition "5 of 60" (2018) changes not only the initial rhythm of the movement of the clock hands, but also the meaning of the whole work of art.
What it is now is a mystery, perhaps it is a dialogue between sound and image, perhaps a dispute, perhaps endless.

Music:
Paolo Ricci - "5 of 60", 2018
Il tempo è inesorabile.
Il quadrante scandisce gli arrivi e le partenze.
L’attesa è infinita.
La musica è sempre uguale e sempre diversa.
Paolo Ricci
