I'm in a funk and need to get out. I have no problem watching a movie a day, but find it more and more difficult to get my video projects done. Work or scheduling issues seem to keep getting in the way. An artist I know set out on a project to make a drawing a day as a way to deal with these problems. I've decided to use a Flip camera and iMovie to make one short video sketch a day. Some narrative, some not, hopefully some interesting. We'll see what happens when there are no excuses.

3.28.10 – Different Perspective
I purchased this small, mirrored ball last week at a thrift shop. I was looking for a mirror for one of my films and instead stumbled on this piece. It wasn’t what I was looking for, but ended up working out quite better than what I thought I wanted. I keep being surprised when I come to the sink and see my surroundings and myself. It all looks so different and so much larger through the view of the ball. Perhaps my life is actually different and larger than it seems to me.
I recently read that Australian aborigines have a saying:

I love that. Makes me think of a Demi Moore movie with Stellan Skarsgard: "Passion of the Mind."
