Each video work has a dedicated room, which allows for each to be well separated from the surroundings. Eight of the newest projectors create sharp and vivid images in full HD between two and three meters wide. Especially for the ‘Krazyhouse’ the sound is set just at the right level to support the individual characters and merge with the images equally.

Hildebrand started working with renowned dutch photographer Rineke Dijkstra in November 2008. Dijkstra was looking for a sound recordist at the time, to be working on a new video installation. A working relationship developed spanning much further than capturing the sound and a friendship emerged, that would see Hildebrand involved at the deep end of many of her ideas.
