I constructed a specialized camera mount for holding and stabilising the camera on a rope. The subject is instructed to pull on the rope. Currently, the rope is tied to a fixed point. | I constructed a specialized camera mount for holding and stabilising the camera on a rope. The subject is instructed to pull on the rope.

In the process of working on this project, I have physically explored the notion of frontier, nature exploration and thought about what it means to move into the distance. | In the process of working on this project, I have physically explored the notion of frontier, nature exploration and thought about what it means to move into the distance. | ||

I feel that the motion obtained is much more interesting than the focus on the subject. As I am most interested, at this stage, in alternate "looking" I will focus future investigations on using the rope camera mount from a "viewing" perspective, removing the subject and holding the focus from behind the lens. | |||
