Inclinations is the result of several years of collaboration between the artist couple Eva and Guido Haas. Scratched and printed directly onto black film, the film frames were synchronized frame by frame with Dave Brubeck's Take 5. The working print of the film featured the shortest possible cuts, only four to five frames long. Where necessary, three of the four frames were then painted over in black again in order to be able to assemble the frame precisely.

Inclinations began as a moment of “crip” play. The ramp becomes a source of creative movement. Dancers can move in ways that they cannot move on flat surfaces and the ramp itself becomes an artistic object, transformed albeit temporarily into an environment that reveals connection, trust, beauty, and desire. Choreographed, directed, and shot from disability perspectives, this dance-on-video delves into the playful connection enabled where disability, community, and ramp meet.

When a bloodthirsty serial killer begins murdering women with a carpenter’s set square, the story becomes a media sensation, inspiring kooks from all over the city to attempt to cash in on the publicity.
