Not And Or
Director: Simon Payne
Year: 2014
NOT AND OR involves black and white quadrilaterals spinning in virtual space that alternate with the same static shapes re-filmed from a screen in real space. The second half of the piece is the same as the first, but flipped, reversed and re-filmed again, through successive generations - adding while taking away.
Twice Over
Director: Simon Payne
Year: 2012
The sequencing of colour and sound for Twice Over followed a pattern based on progressions across the scale of colours and tones. An element of chance was introduced by re-filming a second variation, overlaying it with the first sequence. In the gap between layers, aleatory colours and tone combinations arise.
A Season in Secret
Director: Matthew Berka
Year: 2027
A SEASON IN SECRET brings together material both close at hand and far away. It is a meditation on things glimpsed at a distance and the limits of perception. What lies behind the screen is hidden and may only be hinted at through the language of visible images and sounds. The film takes some of its cues from the Japanese aesthetic concept of Yūgen, described in part by the 15th-century aesthetician Zeami Motokiyo: “...to stand upon the shore and gaze after a boat that disappears behind distant islands.”
