MacGuffin and 3 Hitch-hikes, illuminated

"Every sign we receive is an index, Hitchcock tells us, but of what, we can rarely ever know. An index is a sign that is directly produced by a material effect, like a smoke signal. Only the index is always different from what it indexes. It tells us that something has happened, but only by being different from its cause. The index, in other words, need have no resemblance. It is not a representation."

Just returned from a short field-trip, Sam Renseiw posts a framed interior illumination from the middle of the week, complete with spoken word abductions by good old Hitch, a MacGuffin and self-inserted Cameo appearance. Expect more spatial footage in the next post(s) while viewing this one by clicking here, or on the links above. (patafilm # 525, 01'01'', 6.2MB, Quicktime/mov - Flash and MPEG4 versions at blip.tv)
