Innermost
Director
Innermost is a visual / audio installation in collaboration with Natasha Barrett. This work's stereoscopic imagery and high-order ambisonic sound composition crafts new mechanisms of sound / image relationship out of dense and joyous field recordings of public gatherings in Oslo. This material, absent of protest, political rally or the threat of violence, yet amassing the free expression of individuals forms the basis of a magical synthesis of experience, paradoxically transporting the audience to the everyday.
Ulysses in the Subway
Director
A picturing of sound in 3D.
All Sides of the Road
Director
All Sides of the Road derives from a twelve-minute 3D video capture of Old Highway 101 entering and departing Dewitt, Iowa. After the title image, the cameras are pointed directly down at the highway, which becomes a rushing microcosm of the world that evokes landscapes both of America and of the mind. The resulting spectacle is both utterly photorealistic and phantasmagoric. In addition to landscape, this digital film also evokes earlier forms of analog film, especially those of the American avant-garde, for the physical properties of the highway are like those of celluloid. In motion, the textures of asphalt and concrete look a lot like film grain, while the lane markers flickering by are easily mistaken for the lines and letterings on film leader rushing through the projector gate.
