The Ambiguous Coil (2001) 5:00
Video- Shalom Gorewitz
Music- Christen Clark
After weeks of turmoil and the range of emotions most New Yorkers
shared after September 11, I was able to do some artmaking activities
leading to this video. Images were recorded along the Hudson, at the
boundaries of ground zero, and near Newark Airport. After the panic,
a tentative response. Like other work, it relies on repetition, association,
music, and other structural elements to convey a semi abstract narrative.
A note on collaboration- Christen Clark, who composed and performed
the music, and I have been partners on diverse projects for 20 years.
He lives in Paris, France and we worked together using the internet.
Technical Information- Video recorded on Sony and Canon miniDV cameras,
processed and edited with Final Cut Pro on Apple G-3 and G-4 computers.
Original master is miniDV with a dub to betacam. Music was created
with Apple G 4 and an assortment of traditional and electronic instruments
and processors
