The Allens

SE 2004

The Allens presents a scene with the American actor Woody Allen in which he permanently switches between different vocal incarnations. Conceived as a computer-controlled video installation, the work is a commentary on the conventional practice in the German film and television industry of synchronizing foreign films – a practice that Erik Bünger was almost completely unaware of until he moved from Sweden to Germany. Gesturing wildly, Allen – who in his films always plays the same nervous character – appears to speak with the thousand tongues of different dubbed voices. The languages of the world are compressed into the voices of a single person.
