Colors

The scouts

A 3-minute interrogation of color as a *tool* rather than decoration—this isn't visual poetry, it's a psychological trap wearing minimalism as camouflage. Hidalgo understands what most filmmakers miss: that the most subversive move is asking viewers to distrust their own perception.

Sitcom within the lineage of structural/materialist cinema, where the medium's properties become the subject; the rigor here is in the refusal to ornament, the restraint that positions this alongside artists like Hollis Frampton who made perception itself the text.

The singular choice is treating color sequences as a behavioral instrument rather than aesthetic element—there's a clinical precision to how each palette shift is timed to catch the eye at a different cognitive register, and that economy of means is what separates this from countless other color studies.
