Mirrored Videos

I like patterns, and I like symmetry, so it's no surprise that I like it when videos of shapes are reflected into a kinda kaleidoscope video. Great. The first minute is the best, but then the music drops and the rest fits the music really well. Fave bit other than the start minute is the clouds.

Patterns Of Light, Casinos And Train Passengers

Anybody who knows me knows that I've got a strange addiction to patterns. Watching this today got me excited to make more videos, and the simplicity of this video made it all the more beautiful. It's a music video for Maledict Car by the Japanese band Jemapur and was directed by Kosai Sekine to form part of the Tokyo.Ten - a showcase DVD and book which looks worth picking up.

In photography I enjoy the task of highlighting things that your average person does not spot. Whether it's the beautiful repetition of balconies on a rundown block of flats who's shades of colour change in the sunlight as you progress away from the light source. Or the underside of a bridge with water reflecting on a perfect mono-grey shade of concrete with the exact perfection of the columns at equal distance from each other.

So there you have it, that's what floats my photography boat! Once I get my new portfolio website together I'll be putting some of my photography up and will link to it from here. Until then check my flickr.
