[Redshift]
Three years of experiments with the direct manipulation of light at ISO51,200 produced this single long take, presented without editing. The patterns and suggestions of faces that emerge are pure pareidolia, ghostly apparitions that exist only in the mind of the viewer. All these in-camera patterns were augmented by superimposing the glitch processes of databending and datamoshing without altering the progression of the images to blend kinetic abstract light with digital errors and seamlessly produce a transformation of what might be an uncomfortable error into a sublime encounter with the ghosts of the digital. The soundtrack provides an essential counterpoint to these movements, a meditation on gestures made and received by the antenna of a Theremin. These abstract translations of physical motion closer to and farther away from the receiver provide a direct parallel to the doppler transformations that define redshift.
