You Called Me Jacky 1990

As with the legendary I’m Not the Girl who Misses Much, this Pipilotti video is a clip in which the artist is the star. This time it ‘s a Song by Kevin Coyne that gives the video its title and sound-track. Pipilotti, stands upright facing into the camera miming to a pre-recorded tape and pretending to play the guitar. Her image is slowly overwhelmed by superimposed images, which move around and are difficult to identify. There is a mobile camera shot in town and then a ventilator and a fire. In the middle of the film, the shot changes and tightens up on the face of the artist, hidden away behind her glasses, the superimposed images then take up nearly the whole screen, before disappearing and giving way to another outline of Pipilotti, who now has combed hair and is dressed differently , the images reduce to a railway line shot (getting progressively smaller until it disappears completely) and the song ends. Always preoccupied with presenting the opposing view of MTV, Pipilotti uses the sequence shot, and reduces the effects of her band to just one, probably the simplest and basic video effects of all – superimposition. This sobriety of technique emphasises the visual complexity of the content, in stark contrast to the content that normally prevails in commercial clips, which can generally be characterised as having stereotyped images (faces, breasts, bottom shots, guitars) and very fast editing aimed at hiding the visual hardship. In this video the body of Pipilotti becomes the world’s theatre, with her violence. The direct performance is opposed to the act of miming to a pre-recorded tape, and the Interpretation is of consumption, poetical imperfection with no commercial faults. More melancholic than I’M Not…m, this clip is more demonstrative, lacking in humour and with more frugal visual inventiveness.
