His work has appeared in Specialten before by way of his film “Collision” on issue #13 in 2006. His latest work Drift is a collaboration with music composer Mark Bowden, devised during an Aldeburgh Music residency. Drift considers the body as landscape through close-up images of skin. The music likewise takes a close-up view of a series of harp chords and viola harmonics. Using real photography in extreme close-up creates a foreign yet familiar world, removed from reality, yet sometimes almost too close. In the music, this tension is mirrored. Original samples are exploded into a multitude of tiny elements before being reconstructed into a tight arrangement based on the Fibonacci series.
Drift appears in full on the Dvd in this issue.
