One more cup of coffee for the road. One more cup of coffe before I go.........To the valley below.

I made this video for the final project in experimental photo. It's 1-part absurdest gestural painting, 1-part Dada inspired, video collage, and 1-part of Brian Bress inspired performance. I call it, "Absurdada". Included with the video is a sculptural element as well, which is basically a reassembled artifact from within the video itself. I'm hoping that this combination could be more effectual compared to a video and photographs which hold the exact same content. It seems that the two together face the problem of redundancy, where the less impactful suddenly becomes drained and weakened. Recontextualizing an element from within the original image has the potential to open up new meanings and possibilities, extending beyond the original content.

And, as always here's the link:
