Tesseract
Tesseract draws a line between photographer Eadweard Muybridge's obsession with photographing movement and his act of jealous murder in 1873.
Muybridge's life and work became a fracturing of time where duration is sliced, mechanized, and stopped from flowing - this was a temporal insanity that led to cinema itself: the re-animation of the frozen image.
Muybridge's form, a spatial layout of time, is used here in film. The screen is split into panels, a moving photographic layout, fracturing our perspective of time, and the narrative of Muybridge's life.

Eadweard Muybridge: The Gates of Time
This composite image was created using media generated in the process of making the film "Tesseract." In the animation sequences, I used over 2,000 original images, photographed by Eadweard Muybridge in the 1880's. While editing the film, I would leave my laptop running, letting Photoshop try to make panoramas out of these images. With some tinkering, I got the software to create crystalline like structures. Their distorted, associative structures remind me of memory, and their contortions evoke for me the stresses of completing this meticulous film.
