Meditating

I have found myself staring into space alot in my free time, when I have it, so I decided to make a short video about that. Just trying to embrace an emptiness, not having to always feel, positive or negative, restrained or inhibited. Feeling mildly schitzofrenic lately, these moments of staring into space thinking deeply about life, photography, loss, sometimes nothing at all. And that is what I wanted to represent with this video, just being there, watching the clouds drift by, exposures so long they really dont even delineate the clouds but rarely. Largely lost in colors, inperceptible movements which bear an obvious direction and flow but never approaching any cohesive narrative. Sometimes photography can serve to recreate a moment, a specific circumstance in time, which can be rebembered again and again through the details of the image, but with this there is little memory, just the feeling of the clouds drifting by all in one long flash, timeless, meaningless, and without any semblance of objectivity.
