Shot over a period of one year in Japan, this video essay is composed of a variety of mythical, ritual, and commonplace elements which interweave and branch out throughout the work in a concurrent, non-successive structure. In effect, a new, transequential language of representation. Layering the images using digital video techniques of compression, expansion, and repositioning enables the juxtaposition of diverse elements within a frame. This hierarchical transfiguration is the cornerstone of the work. The audio is formatted to counterpoint the visuals, extensive use of digital sampling synthesis blends and transforms many of the sounds.
