I want big ideas to have aesthetic relevance. I want to tickle people's intellectual sensibilities and instill a sense of wonder.
Movies have these transcendent moments where everything is just right, from the dialogue to the music to the lighting to the narrative context; everything is just perfect, and something magical happens - the film breaks through the screen and does something to you.
As a media artist and filmmaker, I'm constantly considering the role of situational context when creating my work.
For me, it's always a failure of the imagination. I have that anxiety that time is passing, that everything is ultimately fleeting and impermanent. I better take advantage of every single moment.
I make short films, little documentaries, about the co-evolution of humans and technology.
There's always going to be the circumstances you can't plan for. There's always the unexpected relevance and the serendipity.
