Memory Lapse is a caustic theatrical sound installation featuring some old-fashioned tape recorders. It deals with a series of brief anecdotic monologues, personal memories from different phases in life. The monologues are played on various tape recorders, which in time begin to slow down and warp the recorded sound. This analogue process is a painful demonstration of the way we slowly warp and lose our memories as time goes by during our lives.
The monologues have been written and recorded (directed) by Guiot Duermeijer; the tape recorders have been prepared by Wouter van Veldhoven.
The language in this installation is Dutch.
