Ichiro Sueoka is known also as a researcher who collect and investigate many kind of "The Home Movies" taken by super8 or 16mm. It is his expression that a memory of original film is reconstructed with putting new material by hand processing.His works emphasize that "Film" is the media which keep the memory as physical material.
And also it would be considered from the cultural anthropology about the relation between "Media of moving image" and Human being. Because, so we can see how the actual time of the original film was shot.

Although this film is not Found Footage, it represents the characteristic, the system and the meaning of existence of "Film" visually.
In this work, the operation manual of 8mm film for beginner is used as the motif. The manual has presented unauthorized use of the error cause. But the error as well is the action for making image by hand processing experimental. In fact, the unauthorized use set by the film product company has been important process for me. For example, controlling of temperature, mixing different chemical . . . etc.
This work is represented by reconstruction of film material and include irony such as it.
