"Your
work ["Video Triptych" DVD] transported me
to the world of fractals (which have been always part of my own work).

Transfigurations
(2005)
digitally manipulated photographs of landscapes and natural phenomena
presented as multi-layered video
Music: 61 X 5, for processed instrument
samples (Steve Kornicki)
A flowing, 50-minute exploration in slow-motion video
and the first in a series concerned with the transformation of still-life,
natural objects. In the first half of the piece, black and white photographs
transition to digitally transformed and manipulations versions of the
photos. The video's second half consists of the same process with color
photos. Gradually, the photos become completely obscured, and the piece
concludes with transfigured images of the original photos from the previous
sections.
