Using material from television broadcasts (image and sound) picked at random while "zapping", this video is a composition of samples that creates something new and totally different from the original. Removed of their former context, the samples lose their former meaning and become tools to be used by the composer. Layer after layer the blocks of sound and Image are put together to form a fascinating audio-visual collage, proving once again that sampling used in a constructive manner is creative and not abusive.
