" I was about thirteen when I read an article in Look about Sam Goody's Record Store in New York.

There is an inscription of conditions that are conflicting and abstracted. Viewing can become a restless, nervy experience producing cognitive conditions that share the symptoms of some of theses coatings…” (1)

How I filmed some of my videos




“….Since Space is fixed around us, in order to explore it we must move in the vehicle of Duration. In kinematics Duration plays the part of an independent variable, of which the coordinates of the points considered are a function. Kinematics is a geometry in which events have neither past nor future. The fact that we create that distinction proves that we are carried along through them…”

A short view of a mechanistic punning device, probably shaped after Raymond Roussel’s perpetuum mobile engines. A Sam Renseiw enlightment, in patacolor. engage the machine or clik here to hear...
