The 93rd film in Rashidi’s ongoing Homo Sapiens Project, HSP (93) evokes, like much of his prolific output, the atmospheric unease and suspense of horror cinema removed from its contextual and narrative confines. A man (played by Rashidi himself), inhabits a series of eerie environments, climaxing in a ravenous engagement with a field of daisies. Working primarily with the Canon DSLR camera and other new technologies, Rashidi has become an important innovator of digital cinema, achieving complex visual effects through an elaborate mixture of filters, lenses and in-camera color grading.
