Double Windsor

2012
The two-channel video work Double Windsor, which is projected opposite to the stereoscopic collages, is inspired by the famous train scene from Buster Keaton’s The Goat (1921). While the original scene plays on one projection, the other channel features a reproduction of this scene. Now, in addition to the “real” Buster Keaton on the locomotive, a second reconstructed locomotive is speeding towards us with Howard Pincus, the New England Railroad Museum chairman, starring as Buster Keaton.
