SECOND SIGHT

2005
7 minutes
Mastered on DVCAM

A collaborative work by Stephanie Maxwell and Peter Byrne: image, animation and editing; and,
Allan Schindler: music score.

This work presents a passage through a mist in which perception is ultimately clarified and sharpened rather than obscured. The computer-generated music of Second Sight features cyclical returns of a nucleus of core ideas, which alternate with a continuous progression of new ideas. The visuals combine direct animation techniques (i.e., painting and etching directly on 35mm motion picture film) with animated electronic compositions and pen-on-paper drawings.
