Lián Amaris Sifuentes in Union Square
On a set resembling an old-fashioned boudoir, containing a chaise and a vanity and strewn with dresses and shoes, Ms. Sifuentes is going through the predate exercises, only she is stretching them out, by moving very, very slowly, which is to say not moving much at all. To prepare for a date it will take her 72 hours, from midnight Friday to midnight tonight. On Saturday afternoon she had a single glass of wine. It took seven hours.
All this is being filmed by R. Luke DuBois, who teaches interactive sound and video performance at Columbia and New York University. He will compress his film into 72 minutes, compression being a digital process that is neither simply speeding up the images nor jittery time-lapse photography.
