Dusty Stacks of Mom: The Poster Project
Interweaving the forms of personal filmmaking, abstract animation, and the rock opera, this animated musical documentary examines the rise and fall of a nearly-defunct poster and postcard wholesale business; the changing role of physical objects and virtual data in commerce; and the division (or lack of) between abstraction in fine art and psychedelic kitsch. Using alternate lyrics as voice over narration, the piece adopts the form of a popular rock album reinterpreted as a cine-performance.
Yard Work Is Hard Work
A 28-minute musical that explores simultaneous disillusionment and hope in glorious color and song.
Posthaste Perennial Pattern
Rapid-fire florals and morning bird songs bridge interior and exterior, design and nature.
Let Your Light Shine
Eye candy as a special treat. Let Your Light Shine is the ultimate Spectrum Short film, a photokinetic stroboscopic spectacle for spectacles. A work in the tradition of the absolute animation film of the 1930s, which requires prismatic glasses to achieve the maximum result.
Blanket Statement #1: Home Is Where the Heart Is
Discordant dysfunction down to the nitty griddy.
Wasteland No. 1: Ardent Verdant
The interconnected circuitry. The aggregated flora. Alternating currents of the visual field.
