Can ear-splitting improvisational noise be considered "Christian music"? North Carolina musician Scotty Irving certainly thinks so. He builds instruments out of hockey masks and crutches, bangs the ground with hammers, and in his one-man act Clang Quartet generally cranks it up for the Lord. Armor of God is a short documentary film that uses Irving's arresting performance to peer into his motivations for venturing so far out on musical and theological limbs.... more info

Short Synopsis: A fusion of visceral image and sound that interweaves an ancient fairy tale with the story of one woman's emotional journey through the loss of a loved one. These two tales become one in a collage of narration, live action, still photography, animation, and an original drum 'n' bass score. Long Synopsis: Beneath a sodden sky, black as pitch, between veils of myth and wonder, reside two heavy hearts.

An experimental film in one shot about the way music takes hold of the musician. The film shows an extreme close up of the musician's face while he is playing Le Grand Tango, a piece written by Astor Piazzolla for Mstislav Rostropovitch. The piece is ten minutes long, which just fits on the 305 meters of the 35mm filmcassette.... more info

An ambient animation made from a single still image of (you guessed it!) an umbrella. Please be assured that it is in fact more interesting then it might sound, as the umbrella is subjected to a LOT of messing with. It is, further, a quite handsome umbrella, discovered in a stack of cards in a Mexican bingo set. This piece was funded in part with a grant from the Seattle Arts Commission.... more info
