What it looks like in motion



Above you see an Iron Statue made by Dennis Smith. His interview will be featured in the Portraits. His work is Giacometti-like with a peace loving Marine Corp twist.

The Mountain is changing colors from pure white to defined features of volcanic rock. Two of these features are worth remembering for their spiritual value. The Madona's Tit is a jagged savior while the heart bears an eerie resemblance to an anatomical heart. To see them take a look at Shasta's South West aspect. Time is rushing forward and the amount of work to accomplish these portraits seems to stack up. We have accumulated a bank of landscape scenery with which we are beginning our editing. 

Interwoven in the process is the search for suitable music that reflects the message of the piece.
Indulge in a bit of audiovisual composition. These shots are from the Memorial Sculpture Garden combined with alpine conditions.

Funkynation


Time does strange things. It's proprieties defy common sense even going as far as needing its own field in physics. The illusion of motion comes from capturing a sequence of image and playing them back as to represent real time. I love that notion. Real time. In fact it is time scaled to our perception. While time lapse is nothing new, it blows my mind every time. Allowing me to scale out to a difference dimension by changing time.
Creating these time lapse take a lot more time then their result, and it requires a certain amount of patience. The key lies in learning to let go and set the camera like a trap; collecting the prize later. 
We leave you with the chore of imagining, churning glucose into funky aspirations inside your mind. 
Peace,
