."The Synchronizer"
In life, as in art, we dream and work our own body into the perfectly regulated instrument. We invent machines that will make us do things IN TIME to a conceptual clock. They may be as literal as an alarm clock, to wake us, or a sleeping pill to knock us out; or perhaps a contraceptive pill to make sex fun; or a breast pump to synchronize the hunger of the next generation with the exigencies of this one's working day. Or a pair of clippers to ensure that our hedge grows into the more appealing form of a chicken, rabbit or little dog. Any kind of medicine, traditional or homeopathic, all of which is essentially "unnatural" in its function of delaying death.

All these fictions are part and parcel of the same desire that makes us edit a film: to re-invent ourselves.

EXTRACT

"Methuselah"

"A sensitive portrait by Cathy Vogan of the dancer Ernest Berk at over eighty years of age. His body, his wrinkles, his views on old-age and sexuality, his zest for life link up with a reflection on time from both a biographical and a scientific viewpoint. Experience and wisdom has gathered in the wrinkles of the skin just as in the warped bark of ancient trees. The recent death of Ernest Berk makes this approach to him as "Methuselah," the magician of life, a final poetic document of the times."
