Exploring the Intersection of Film and Technology
I’m thrilled to share my latest experimental film, a unique remix of the 1968 classic Candy set to the haunting track "Kandy" by Fever Ray from the Radical Romantics album. This project is more than just a creative endeavor; it’s a reflection on the evolving relationship between film, information, and technology. The film industry has always been a fertile ground for innovation, and this piece is a testament to the exciting new forms of storytelling emerging today.
A Nod to the Birth of Personal Computing
1968 was not only the year of Candy but also a pivotal moment in the history of technology with the birth of the personal computing era. Alan Kay’s visionary prototype of a personal computing device laid the groundwork for how we interact with technology today. This film draws a parallel between that innovative spirit and the bold, experimental approaches we see in contemporary filmmaking. The remix speeds up the original audio to 115%, adding a new layer of intensity and reimagining the narrative in a modern context.
Join Me on This Creative Journey
This film is part of a broader series that delves into the history of the relationship between medium and information, exploring how innovation in tech has continuously influenced the film industry. The original references and inspirations are linked in the film's description for those interested in diving deeper. I invite you to watch, reflect, and perhaps even see how these themes resonate with your own creative practices. The journey of storytelling is ever-evolving, and I’m excited to share this latest chapter with you.
