Your World

 





 Happy that/ heureux que my quasi experimental documentary/ moviepoem Your World took a prize at the Athvikvaruni IFF and is a selection at the Sittannavasal IFF, both in India. Perhaps because of the project’s subject matter, this movie seems to be resonating with juries in India.

Three Tragedies, Four Seasons


#poetryfilm #videopoetry #videoart #moviepoem


This is an early cut of one of the first feature length moviepoems I made. 


Synopsis: Three Tragedies, Four Seasons is the result of three projects that came together and merged. One was from a series called World Bardo, which were short ambient pieces or videopoems, and some were about the death of my mother-in-law in the summer of 2018.


She passed away in July. It’s a sultry time of year in South Korea, and the sound of insects, the heat, and the humidity suffused everything. 


The second death was that of my brother — in January, 2013. The weather then was the opposite: frigid and spartan. My brother was fascinated by both summer and winter, especially the bleak, spectral beauty of winter. The final story is a work of fiction — also set in winter. Throughout all these pieces, wanted to capture a feeling of seasonality, and also the sense of the nature/life/death cycles that exist in the world. It’s easy to talk about cycles in an abstract way; after the death of someone you care deeply about, these sensations becomes very profound. The world, the environment, feels like it’s entering you. Intense sadness dissolves us.

The War on Smog XI


The four opening photos in this clip here were all shot in the past week. They capture the eerie warmth South Korea is experiencing this fall; spring flowers blooming in late November because of global warming. Moreover, military activity significantly increases carbon emissions. Is there a connection between these two phenomena? Full video at YouTube: youtu.be/Mj1lJfbNJtU

The Highly Illustrated Screenplay Narrative

  #novel #publishing #literature. 2/The recent PRH merger trial underlines  publishing is going through turmoil; the result in no small measure of declining fiction sales. My idea is a new form of graphic fiction should be established: the highly illustrated screenplay narrative.


#roman #édition #littérature.  2/ Le récent procès de fusion PRH souligne que l'édition est en pleine tourmente ;  le résultat dans une large mesure de la baisse des ventes de fiction.  Mon idée est qu'une nouvelle forme de fiction graphique devrait être établie : le scénario narratif très illustré.
