Well things are going amazingly well with my project lately... I feel like it's really starting to unfold and I'm narrowing in on a final product. I have finished up the first section of three (the trees section) and am finishing up the music now on the second section (skies).

I've been thinking too about presentation, and I'm wondering if it would be possible to have three small screens playing each of the three sections in loops with a set of headphones at each station. It would be set up like a linear narrative in a way (kind of an emphasis on the construction of the whole thing)... beginning, middle, end... and you could choose to stop at each station like that in sequence... or you could just stand back and look at all three screens as they flip through the images in a continuous loop. I like that element of choice... and I think it would draw the viewer in to see it as a whole then as a sequence in its three parts. (These are thoughts that are coming to me based on this piece being shown in a museum-like space).

There are of course difficulties... like getting three screens of relatively the same size... headphones I could probably provide.... I don't know, we'll see.
