Trees, Like Fireworks a Visual Time Signature. If we consider trees and their growth, the buds, blossoming, expansion of branches and new growth sped up, trees are like fireworks. If we could watch the tree's growth from each spring sped up, as if were a very fast time lapse film, we could see an explosion of energy each year. For the work pictured here, “Trees, Like Fireworks 2”, I’m working within this visual time signature and depicting the event as a visual ambient drone, to encapsulate the idea and feeling of that tree’s energy into the soft pink and blues, dreamlike experience, like a carnation firework at night.

"Visual Time Signatures" an excerpt from what I'm working on:

These different world time views reflect different psychological frameworks with which people perceive the world and events. I’d like to consider both the cultural framework and individual circumstances as we consider time, perception, and cognition in an idea I call “visual time signature”. A visual time signature is the perceptual and psychological framework of how one witnesses and relates to time, which underlies the process of perceiving and understanding. Visual time signatures may vary based on the event, such as the slow motion perception while in the crashing car, as opposed to a time signature of average, everyday life. Visual time signatures may vary throughout people and cultures A cultural notion of time, of the past, present, a future creates different world-views. Differences in visual time signatures can lead to differences in perception, interpretation and understanding.

"Photographing All-ness"(pictured) The image is a composite cinema of multiple moments. The light reflecting from the objects of the landscape through multiple instances, is layered on the film creating a density that merges the visual elements into one unified field of white light.

Meta-Landscapes, World Time Views and Photography

In old Nordic culture people had a different world time view than we do today. There was the past, and non-past. There was that which was and is, and that which is becoming. There wasn't a strong concept of the future as we have today. The past was realized, more concrete, and it held us at the threshold of the chaotic incoming non-past, the present. People acted on the threshold of this place, the present. (Paul Bauschatz "the Well and the Tree" chapter 4.)

I'm working on ideas of psychological frameworks of world time views, and photography, and will post more, so stay tuned.
