I met each of the soldiers at night, inside the walls of the barracks. I asked him/her to move in what he felt was his proper internal rhythm, without the guidance of external sound stimulus. And to stop at the moment they detect a flashlight.
The entire setup, which lasts 3 minutes, is recorded on video. And the detected flashlight is an actual photo exposure. Hence the project consists of a video and photo component.

The word ‘section’ can refer to a small infantry unit, such as those first introduced by the British Army. A section generally consists of nine soldiers made up of a Corporal, a Lance-Corporal and seven privates.
