Drive is about the influence of moving images onto the spectators. About their psychological and physical impact. But it is also about the development of the cinematographic language and its deep connection with the changing society. Crandall has conciously embedded Drive in a historical and political context. Historical by using old film techniques (Super 8 mm and 16 mm), which he transformed into a contemporary document by DVD and the latest software. Political by using civilian and military images. Military footage shows a very different approach than 'ordinary' film does. It does not register movements but tracks them. Crandall combines recordings by espionage cameras, satellites, Night Vision devices and thermal imaging cameras, to create an interaction of movement, technology and even erotic desire. This way Drive's hybrid post-cinematic imagery contributes to film history.
