American changes character at night. A well-kept lawn organizes itself
with eerie, martial discipline. Trees war with their estranged
brothers, the telephone poles. A picture is an elaborate ritual, a
process of staring and adjusting, balancing a clumsy camera and
squinting at an image flickering on glass. At long exposures, colors
shift in unnatural ways, as the film is pulled beyond its intended,
commercial parameters. This is the suburban night.
