Currently

I've started taking photographs using only my smartphone and instagram filters to become the visuals accompanying the audio recordings. Things to consider:


1. Duration of image playback
2. Do I have to remember the specific filters to individual pics, or should I use the same one to 'fit the mood'
3. Take a group of photos to repeat, or enough photos to never repeat

Using instagram or snapchat offers the use of a social platform, however snapchat wants to share my location. Content of the images changes for each audio recording and may vary depending on the context within the recording itself.


Edit: Used the short clips I'd taken the other day to see how it looked with the audio to halp_mixdown. Experimenting was successful, now just to create some kind of narrative.

  1. yesterday mentioned JLG (his problem and solutions with sound), and the personal films of Jonas Mekas.

    might (and should) also have mentioned the category "structural film" in context of selection and ordering/sequencing of the visuals accompanying the interviews.

    Hollis Frampton (1936-84), particularly his Zorn's Lemma (1970), worth looking into.
