Crinkle

This film is currently not available.   

Featuring overlaying monologues, Phil Morton brings up a wide range of philosophical and mundane topics: self-exploration, evolution, personal values, frustration, exhaustion, spirituality, video making, etc. He discusses the capability of video as a tool for expansion of perception. Video and media advancement is like a crinkle that provides both opportunities and challenges. On one hand, video arts can expand consciousness, but also open up a rabbit hole of self-reflection and perhaps self-criticism. The video is an ongoing juxtaposition of live-feed portrait video and constant influx of feedback. At times, the feedback appears like burning flame and portal toward the viewer, as if lighting up an urge to self-examination. The audiovisual elements are never clearly perceivable due to overlapping, as if uncovering a Jungian confrontation to the self-unconscious.
