Direct Film Manipulation

I find this sort of hands on artistic manipulation of film very refreshing. The creative possibilities seem endless. I have no idea of what direction I am taking this but it does bring out the artist in me. Exploring film making in this fashion help losens the preconceived notion of what film should be. Looking at the film strip itself as a canvas, one can achieve a more organic and self aware art form. Thinking of color and how it creates its own resonance, you can juxtaposes images color and shapes to evoke a mood or inner experience much like a painting.

Synesthesia

Synesthesia is an interesting "condition" of the collision of our senses. Our perception of the world "reality" is based on information given to us by our senses. The assumption that our senses are mutually exclusive from each other reveal our limited understanding of the interconnectedness all things. Color has sound, sound has color is not so strange when you break everything down to our brains ability to interpret electrical impulses and assign meaning.
