Impulsators

In Impulsators Robakowski rejects the narrative film form and the representational function in the spirit of his radical manifestations against the illusory character of traditional film in the 1970s such as eg Test Test II Like Impulsators those noncamera films came into being as a result of perforation of film stock which thus lets through in a desired way the light from the projector which is in turn fixed on the retina and produces afterimages The movement of the film stock generates lively flicker targeted directly at the viewers body above their imagination Immersed in the trance rhythm the impulsator becomes a new psychophysical force
