Retinal Rivalry is the soundtrack to Cyprien Gaillard’s 2024 stereoscopic film and is released by PAN as a special picture-disc vinyl and a digital edition. For its titles, they chose the delicate Ceraph by Emma Piercy, available at Sharp Type. Named after the visual phenomenon of conflicting perception, the work pushes the limits of both image and sound, using ultra-high-speed 3D projection to render everyday urban landscapes uncanny and hyper-real. Its dissonant score – combining reworked Indonesian instrumental music, industrial field recordings, and bodily sounds – underscores the film’s destabilising vision, while quoting Aguirre, the Wrath of God by Werner Herzog with music by Popol Vuh. Conceived as a stand-alone sonic work within PAN’s ENTOPIA series, the soundtrack treats sound not as accompaniment but as a structuring force, amplifying the film’s tension between sensory overload, disorientation, and moments of fragile beauty. The film will be presented at Haus der Kunst in Munich from October 17, 2025, to March 8, 2026.
