In the Shadow of the Sun
Fantasy
'The Shadow of the Sun' draws upon Derek Jarman’s interest with alchemical processes as a metaphor for reprocessing Super-8 film. Jarman once described film’s union of light and matter as “an alchemical conjunction” and experimented throughout his career with creating dream symbolism through the superimposition of image and action. Originally called English Apocalypse, the film’s final title is derived from a 17th Century alchemical text that used the phrase as a synonym for the philosopher’s stone – the highly sought substance that turns base metals into gold and silver. The film was intended as a step toward the idea of an ambient video, that like its musical counterpart, was designed to enhance an environment.

Based on a piece of film of a car trip to Avebury. Images of ritual happenings and objects of mystical significance are superimposed onto this to produce an abstract surface of colour, texture and mystery. This was part of a series of films called "The Art of Mirrors" which were made in London on silent Super-8mm in 1970-74. The film was blown up to 16mm and a soundtrack by the group Throbbing Gristle was added in 1980 and it premiered at the Berlin Film Festival in 1981.
