'''My work this semester''' has been focused on reviewing my methods of "looking" and on figuring out how to slow down and come to a methodology of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia synaesthetic] "watching". I have experimented with HD video and self-made camera mounting devices and made research on the topic of time/chronology and experimental film approaches. | '''My work this semester''' has been focused on reviewing my methods of "looking" and on figuring out how to slow down and come to a methodology of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia synaesthetic] "watching".

As a final semester project I am presenting a 2min40sec, single channel HD video work entitled "''missing looking 1: taubach''". The work includes macro perspective HD video recorded outdoors, short audio-feedback sounds recorded and edited with the video and flickering black spaces, reminiscent of blinking, the instability of perception and gaps between the senses. | As a final semester project I am presenting a 2min40sec, single channel HD video work entitled "''missing looking 1: taubach''". The work includes macro perspective HD video recorded outdoors, short audio-feedback sounds recorded and edited with the video and flickering black spaces, reminiscent of blinking, the instability of perception and gaps between the senses. The video uses a single image sequence, cut intuitively using a concrete poetic technique of loose categorization and subsequent remixing. The video recording is treated as raw material for the exercise of sculpting to look for a new awareness. | ||
Additionally, I will present 2 self-made camera mounts and video samples. | Additionally, I will present 2 self-made camera mounts and video samples. | ||

The goal of my work this semester was on coming to a poetic and intuitive way of approaching my artistic practice. Clearly influenced by experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage and approaching aesthetic experienced as being linked to human physicality as much as psychology I am influenced by works which attempt to bring a viewer near to the realization of their own human existence. Such as the experience of Joseph Beuys felt stack pulling the sound from the ears of every nearby viewer and colour theory as explained by eye physical by Itten and my former professor John Cooper, I am exploring through the mediums of video and recorded sound to create a super-sensory experience. | The goal of my work this semester was on coming to a poetic and intuitive way of approaching my artistic practice.

While my work from this semester involves a number of exploratory technical works, on the whole, I am interested in exploring time-related breaks between the senses of sight and hearing. | While my work from this semester involves a number of exploratory technical works, on the whole, I am interested in exploring time-related breaks between the senses of sight and hearing. |
