I do not know what it is I am like, is an pic journey in five chapters reflecting Bill Viola´s personal investigation of the inner states and connections to animal consciousness we all possess. As each dramatic cycle unfolds, the viewer is guided through many levels and states of being in a stream of images which mediate between the spiritual nature of humankind and the natural order of the universe. Bill Viola gathered images, for this video work over a period of two years. In the course of his travels he spent several weeks with a freely roaming herd of bison in Wind Cave National Park, South Dakota; recorded a timelapse sequence beside a glacial lake in the Canadian Rocky Mountain wilderness; and attended a week - long firewalking ritual at a Hindu temple on the Iland of Fiji. Also during this time, Viola was artist- in residence at the San Diego Zoo.
