Ambient video

I propose to demonstrate my video productions, and discuss their style, purpose, and creative direction. I intend to show excerpts from my video works "Rockface" and "Streaming Video". These works are part of my overall research program. My research has led me to predict the emergence of a form of popular televisual art I call "Ambient Video". In the scholarly portion of my research, I write about Ambient Video, predicting its future by tracing its antecedents in popular cinema, experimental film, and video art. At the same time, I am engaged in the production of a series of Ambient Video production works. This creative arm of my research instantiates the directions I am predicting. The video productions act as "proof-of-concept" to demonstrate the ideas I am describing.
