‘Our Oboros’

June 14th, 2023

Directing another installment of MAGIC REALISTS AND THE RADICAL HOPE (a series of short films to be agglutinated into something bigger). This time, we’re at an artist’s production workshop in Crown Heights (beneficently offered by the talented and inimitable Timothy Paul Myers), shooting with the multi-disciplinary artist and performer Andrea Merkx. Mike Flannery, my co-conspirator, excels in production design on this day.

Incubating

March 1st, 2023

A month of incubation, but always working: various edits and shoots for some spots on public schools; also, cutting a cinema project I can’t disclose; and finally, work continues apace on MAGIC REALISTS & THE RADICAL HOPE, as well as development for ORPHEUS IN REVERSE. Always important to remember that the superficially dormant months can be the most fecund.
