a film by Emily Hubley, sound by Yo La Tengo, add’l animation - Jeremiah Dickey, associate editor – Tara Knight A skull at the beach, a busted watch, a green brassiere! (and so on) ... Animated film miniatures play with musical tones and shifting symbolic images to create eight moments when things come together in mysterious cohesion. Each segment, consisting of a picture puzzle, a one-word clue and a new tone played on an embellished musical scale, provides a distinct mental location for the audience to dig around in their own unconscious stuff. This material, which started as a group of animated poems for my feature-in-progress, THE TOE TACTIC, has taken on a life of its own. Here, free of one layer of narrative meaning and accompanied by inventive and riveting sound, the imagery, with its eclectic, surprising visual vocabulary becomes simply hypnotic and fun. |
