soon it would be too hot

The sun, from the human point of view is the most elevated conception. It is also the most abstract object, since it is impossible to look at it fixedly at that time of day. George Bataille

This film is an assembly of waves - disturbances traveling through mediums - a speculation of metabolic relations. A 16mm film of sunrise at a beach and audio recording of surf and wind is processed with an analog video/audio modular synthesizer. The synthesizer is orchestrated to activate cross modulations of image and sound feedback.  These electrical signals generate randomizing, shifting colors, patterns, sounds, tonal variations and rhythms. During the performance the feedback loops are agitated by inserting my fingers within the closed-circuit feedback. The resulting live video/audio signal is recorded to video tape and transferred to digital formats via an AI program.
