USA, Experimental, 2005, Color, 00:03:00

“Apple” is a healthy and appetizing episode in a series of digitally animated pieces inspired by the direct film tradition. This tradition includes works in which the filmstrip is directly manipulated by painting, scratching, or otherwise placing objects on it. To create my piece I cut an apple in half and scanned the both sides of the two pieces into my computer. I then took the image files of the apple pieces and “pasted” them directly into the video strip using a photo editing software package. This technique then transforms the apple pieces into what appears to be a random exploding jumble of images when viewed. The jumbled video stream is composited and intercut with a series of and sem... more info

In the vacated downtown of a metropolis a storm approaches and envelops – except this is no ordinary meteorological phenomenon. A digital wind blows the debris from an overflow of information – the city is now occupied by a rushing whirlwind carrying a tangled mass of communication. currentdocuments the path of this storm blowing through an abandoned city like tumbleweed through a ghost town. As devices of technology hovering in enclaves between the skyscrapers seem to monitor or perhaps even cause the storm, the city is consumed, erased by a blanket of information.... more info

United Kingdom, Experimental, 2003, mini DV, Color, Magnetic Stereo, 00:03:00

Using a fixed camera position, water was recorded spiraling down a plughole. Alterations in speed and direction are used to create a continuous loop in which water rhythmically rises and falls, enters and emerges. As it does so, the circular shape is transformed and reflections are revealed, hidden or distorted, creating the illusion that the subject of the piece is not a solid object but, rather, a mercurial, liquid substance. The "eye" of the camera interacts with the "eye" of the plughole, questioning the relationship between observer and observed. The motif of the spiral is found in diverse cultures, both East and West. For Carl Jung, a clockwise spiral denoted the unfolding of the ... more info
