This site documents my investigation of two core areas of interest:
• capturing and analysing everyday movements
• and exploring the relationship between motion and sound
Unrelated to my commercial motion design work, I have always carried a camera wherever I have gone, recording what I saw in passing, for pure enjoyment and with utter aimlessness. Over the years patterns of form and content unexpectedly emerged and prompted me to analyse the underlying principles of my approach to image-making.
Everyday locations and movements fascinate me – the world around us that is taken for granted and therefore often overlooked. I do not stage or arrange what I record, I merely observe, but I strip out the superfluous by choosing my frame.
The resulting footage forms the basis for my experimental films. I have explored various forms of manipulation: adding elements, formally combining recordings, abstracting aspects of them or using them in a new context. The addition of music and sound tends to play an important part in structuring the film and interpreting the footage.
