bird fLight

my video poem, in response to Stan Brakhage's MothLight:



one thing i noticed only after watching it is the mirroring of Brakhage's vertical movement within frames, giving it the feel of a reel spinning vertically over light.

also, one thing that the youtube doesn't do justice to is the mirroring in the window glass. you can see me twice in the footage, with camera in hand.

also, the spot on the window pane where the bird hit the glass.
