When the Eye Speaks uplifts the use of consumer technology in the creation of the video essay, non-fiction narrative and documentary. Employing accessible hardware and software such as screen recorders, smartphone cameras, first-person shooter video games, drones and the Internet, When the Eye Speaks reimagines the info-narrative format of the documentary as collage as a means of examining identity, place, gender, and the geopolitical implications of surveillance through the use of monologue, performance, object making and narrative. Following the screening will be a pre-recorded experimental discussion with the group that also serves as a desktop essay. This program is one of five screenings as part of Skowhegan Conference Call: Moving Image.
