if you can see a banner with an elephant at the bottom right hand corner of this page (or indeed any page on my site) then get yourself one of the mozilla browsers (either mozilla itself or firebird). it would cost me 40� a year to get rid of the banner.

as i mentioned in a post back in march, i have been trying to see koyaanisqatsi properly now since new years eve. well thanks to kiasma (helsinki’s modern art museum). i finally will be able to as they are showing them outdoors on the kiasma stage (outdoor stage just beside the museum). two weeks today!

quatsi night - godfrey reggio: koyaanisqatsi and powaqqatsi (film screening)

koyaanisqatsi and powaqqatsi were the first two parts of a series of films by sergio reggio, which recently grew into a trilogy. the series examines both western lifestyle and culture using cinematic, visual language (koyaanisqatsi), and as its counterpart cultures on the southern hemisphere, in developing countries, as they are called. an essential element of this cinematic experience is philip class’s original musical score.

a few years ago i stumbled on a website. it was of a fella around my age who took a picture of himself every day and posted it online. so over time you could see changes in time of his apperance. most obvious was the changes in his hair. less obvious was those subtle changes that happens over time. well today, while on a non related website, i found a link to a copy cat!. this one is only going seven months or so.

having found this site, i then tried to find the original site from several years ago. google came to the rescue as per usual. the site is called “when will it end“, and its a subsite of his main site.

anyway, on the main part of the site, there is a set of links to similar photo log/time based archival projects. check some of them out, really good stuff.
