Sylvia Schedelbauer

Schedelbauer was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1973, to a German father and a Japanese mother.

[1] Schedelbauer worked as an editor on Craig Baldwin's 2008 science fiction collage film Mock Up on Mu.

[4] Her 2014 film Sea of Vapors uses highly layered superimpositions to depict "the female body and its cycles, the connections that we feel toward nature."

She used Final Cut Pro to create the film's shifting, flickering patterns, by repeatedly stacking images on top of each and exporting the result.

[5] In Wishing Well (2018), Schedelbauer creates a flickering pattern by combining images of a child playing and a drone.
