Res Magazine
World leading audio/visual artists Addictive TV present a rare London performance of their acclaimed live cinema project The Eye of the Pilot. Remixing the incredible 8mm personal archive of French airline pilot Raymond Lamy, filmed during his travels in the 1950's, Addictive TV's The Eye of the Pilot is a musical and visual travelogue with an original soundtrack by the group featuring live guitar from Paris-based composer Alejandro de Valera.
The Eye of the Pilot takes the audience to places including Karachi, Ivory Coast, Saigon, Tahiti and San Francisco, capturing the romantic innocence of the world at a time when traveling with a home movie camera was still highly unusual.
"Awesome in a word"
