tends toward coextant variation, and spontaneous sequentialism
changes on a whim
Attempts to examine the space between the image and the moving image.

pieces address the bridge between the discrete and the continuous and question
the reigning conception of the film as representative of motion,
though it inherently asks for interpolation of a series of discrete moments.

Big Sur was recorded at a camp ground in Big Sur over the

playing a classical guitar. I was there to see Laurie Anderson
play an intimate show, and I recorded an album intimately with electronics.
Recorded in 2005, released in 2006.
