Persistence of Memory

This is an experimental film wanting to remind viewers that we are all just a small part of a vast universe. The only rules that Joan La Barbara and I set before we began collaborating on this project was that my film and her music should be 30 minutes and I won’t even hear her music until the opening. Experimental film was premiered at Berlin Germany MaerzMusik Festival in March 2012 “Cage and Consequences” celebrating 100th anniversary of John Cage Birth as a part of Joan La Barbara live performance.
