Accelerated images, bodies in transition. Online Bodies consists of seven short non-causal parts, each showing a different angle on the online body. The film passes along bodies in transition: a deepfaked porn actor, a 3D model that wishes to be reproduced, a group of genetically modified humans that live inside an alien, four friends discussing cyborg modifications, a body that cannot get up an escalator. Collectively, they highlight the space in between the physical and virtual.

My role was to edit the piece together, making it connect and make sense. For the chapter A Body as a Grid (intro and right before the ending), I had complete creative freedom to direct and shape both the direction and the aesthetic of the piece.
