A metaphor for the conflict between rationality and emotion; betweeen Apollo and Dionysus; between the empirical and the supernatural; between stasis and revolution...

our motto and mission is to

tickle the idiot
rapture the faithful
pity all the ignorant and hateful

illuminate the enlightened
confound the intellectual
with life distilled flood memory's temple

Detail of New Work-in-Progress: Digital Photocollage


This is a work-in-progress that has been long in the planning but I only recently began to actually compose. It is a collage made from scans of film, all of which was photographed using a pinhole camera. Most of the negatives were double or triple- or quadruple exposed, but not all of them. The scans are then of course dragged individually onto a new common file, and recomposed.Of course, you can see the previous image below and note a single component of the above composite image.
