“The blurred swish during the movement of the eye is somehow snipped from our conscious awareness, and we are left with just the significant images before and after the movement. Not only do we not see the blurred movement, we are unaware that anything has been removed. And this is happening all the time: with every movement of our eyes, an invisible editor is at work, cutting out the bad bits before we can ever see them”.

“There's no such thing as simple. Simple is hard.”

The course this year will investigate private, new spaces that have been shaped by the audio components that you will create in the initial stages of the project. The piece that may be without narrative in structure will be no shorter than 3 minutes in length and will incorporate live action footage. Audio material should be recorded and manipulated separately. The mixing of soundtrack and any incidental sound from footage can be mixed at editing. The work should be titled and authored to DVD accompanied by a booklet containing a facsimile of the storyboard and explanation of the work’s intentions.
