Recent Project- Day in Life

Eventually I want to be able to capture a day in the life as a sequence of presents. Somehow, I want the temporality of that present to appear as more of a presence, of becoming. (Half way through, the frequency which comes in is the Schumann Resonance)



I have been exploring the concept of video-music. I have been chopping up video clips that contain the environmental acoustics captured when they were filmed, and then splicing these clips together in an attempt to arrive at a song composed of that sound intrinsic to images. This is in contrast to music-video which takes separate sound and image and puts them together. My ideas on this concern the synaesthetic experience of our senses with our eyes and ears, and the spontaneity of them both in producing this image born sound. Thus far, the music sounds sporadic and confused, and I am still working on this technique. It might be interesting just to take a look...




I feel it would be nice to include a small meditation film I put together after a trip to the mountains of Colorado a few months ago...




Next, a few clips I took during the lunar eclipse on the winter solstice, 2010! Quite a glorious experience, the full eclipse.




And finally, a music video my friend asked me to make for him. (It is a bit jarring...)
