Still Blind Voodle Hunting Head

A short experimental (because first we do, then we see) voodle by moi & bk featuring a blind edit of what once was captured in DogA, Oslo, Norway - 2006.11.28. text to be added... lomeglumiere # 058 " content lumiere" (quicktime / flash / mpeg-4) included... not that it really matters... content is not provided... and what you see is what you construct... this is an automatic voodle... text should be added tomorrow... blind cut-up footage... blind like most of the voodles so far... you see what you see when you see it... soundtrack by biosphere recorded on location... needs a comment too... remember to establish links to records of a life-installation... body and space morphologies are unplanned or accidental (blind and coincidental). This voodle used two minutes and 12 seconds in the making and it takes the viewer exactly two minutes and 30 seconds to view it (if you just view it, that is). This voodle uses crapy footage from way before voodle time and like many voodles it has not the slightest clue what it all is about. Text to be deleted or changed soon...

Abide, Dwell And Take

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring an uncut yet somewhat heavy camouflaged long take as an archaic view of and on the voodler voodling. The abide ("You can stay with me while you are in town") is the dwell ("stay a bit longer - the day is still young") that captures various body and space morphologies in Paris, France - 2008.03.20. Follow the "desinvolture view" acting, capturing and loosing it all again whilst accompanied by zikwebs very own dramaturgy called 'Xanadu' - the place all voodles come from and end in, or?

On Video Sketching* and Body Takes

* To draw;
Make a drawing; make, formulate or give a description of an (your) absorption; take in, also metaphorically, the representation of an (your) absorption/attraction
* To doodle;
Make a doodle; draw aimlessly
* To paint;
Make a painting of; paint (colour) an absorption/attraction; apply paint to

.

Your intuition alert and with ‘Vertov’s subjective camera’ in mind; investigate in the properties/nature of body as the nude. Use the video camera as sketching tool and try to capture the properties of ‘body’ by drawing it, doodling it or painting it.

.

Your awareness is focused on:
The body/nude only – the body/nude as a still (n; akt). The body/nude as an object/matter of mass, volume, surface, form, shape, etc. The body/nude as the undraped human figure in art. The body/nude as the starting point - and an expression (of yours). The body/nude as being a resistance, receiver, absorber, etc.

.

You will not focus on:

The model as a person – the personality of the model. How the body is taking up space, how it is placed within the space and how it is grounded (standing, sitting etc). Sound/audible information.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring two simultaneously shot videos of a new doing* captured in Oslo, Norway - 2008.09.02. The second ever produced dooble-voodle shows in two frames two artistic and very different views on the body as the undraped human figure in art and hence proofes again that no views ever can be the same. See the classical lumiere to the right and the novelty of a video-sketch to the left - both for the sake of the dooble-voodle enhanced by digital means and very audible talents (soundtrack 'the dancers' by ccmixters onlymeith).

A not too short yet not so very (sc)a[i]ry experimental test-voodle by bk featuring a continuous mobile 16' Point Of View 'shot through the institution' compressed down to some 5 minutes of (unmotivated?) subjectivity. Oslo, Norway - 2008.08.08. Feel the thrill and enjoy the power of 'Subjective Camera' by listening to simonlittlefields classic-abstruse ext.interior - or try to stay cool and turn off the sound.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring a hidden humorous study in body and space morphology shot in Hella near Kristinehamn, Sweden - 2008.07.29. View the novelty of a 'lumiere-group-portrait' that takes the temperature on a very particular time lag. While nobody knows that no picture was taken, Gurdonark complains in a utmost merriment and gaiety way about too many clowns and not enough car.

On Headspace and the Tectonics of Views

"Sometimes all that is needed is a little bit of magic. It doesn't need much talent, developed skills nor a genius view... only presence and waiting ...serendipity.

On the other hand it is possible to witness this magic occurring over and over again - it exists and it can be found as a real trouvé - yet it is in no sense the result of chance and portion but rather the outcome of one of internet's most fruitful and skilled collaborations; the titans of voodling with sound."

.

A short experimental mirror-voodle by bk featuring an extension of earlier presented footage juxtaposed as it is. View the deep and sound space perturbed only by a placing - or by being placed - in nearness or contiguity. Even though Juxtaposition might be a very unsafe criterion of continuity... don't be afraid, gurdonark's sound meditation, alt. mediation, provides us with plenty of headspace, clear tectonic views and - although many voices - one mass. Looking for contiguity, perturbative spaces, moving mass and the sorts; what more can you ask for, b.k.?! Gurdonark's really sound collocation 'one mass, many voices' and many many of his other nice appositions and tuned tessellations can be found at ccmixetr.org.

A not too short experimental docu-voodle by moi on body and space morphologies - witnessed in Vigelandsparken, Oslo, Norway - 2008.05.25 at exactly 1500 hours (as every Sunday). View the fit, diplomatic, fluent, repand and almost ceraceous bodies - together with a forth and backwards rocking 'pella called 'ginga' - creating assorted parallel spaces in a mesmerizing, never ending monotonous act of friendly but nevertheless martial arts. Capoeira, a bland of play, dance and fighting, has it's origin in Brazil but seems to flourish quite well in northern climate too... Don't miss the final view accompanied by fuzette's 'la lai' (ccmixter.org).

"What is the sound of one hand clapping?"

All are wrong."

A short experimental docu-voodle by moi capturing particular moments of reiterative but not redundant duration happening on the way in and out of one of Japans most known places of possible providers for direct intuitiv insights. Savings and rituals are well preserved in the land of the rising sun, yet, contrary to western civilisation, kept alive, build on and by no means conserved. See about four minutes of a total of 2 hours of footage (on the same issue) taken by moi and bk at the Ryoan-ji temple in Kyoto, Japan - 2008.03.11, and enjoy the zen-like sound-coulisse 'catch and release' (excerpt) by ccmixter artemisstrong.

On Apparent Horizon and Purviews

"His true heart is pounding for the heavy mass soundly moving under his feet and clearing his gaze, inviting him to mould, dig and shape between what is and what can be and what will again belong to the mass. He can understand the play and flirt with the horizon. He finds it dazzling and it amazes him. Yet, although slightly bewildered, he has to sympathise with his view who's kept on the line but longs for nothing then the mass again. This is his limitation, this is his source."

.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk capturing lost thoughts on an apparently apparent horizon. While trying to follow the horizontal rule and searching for the apparent in a great flat ambit bk gets his spectre of both physical and mental representations of beauteous haunting purviews. See the dazzling struggle with and against the sensible horizon - all caught nearby Copenhagen, Denmark - 2008.06.03, and overlaied by duckett's likewise haunting 'lost thoughts' (ccmixter.org).

Decisions (NPM re-vision 11/12)

.

The act of making up your mind about something – the burden of decision was his - he drew his conclusions quickly … The trait of resoluteness as evidenced by firmness of character or purpose - a man of unusual decisiveness … A position or opinion or judgment reached after consideration - a decision unfavourable to the opposition - his conclusion took the evidence into account - satisfied with the panel's determination … The outcome of a game or contest - the team dropped three decisions in a row … (Boxing) a victory won on points when no knockout has occurred - had little trouble in taking a unanimous decision over his opponent".
...conclusion, conclusion, decisiveness, determination, determination, appointment, assignment, call, casting lots, choice, designation, drawing lots, final result, firmness, judgement, judgment, mind, move, naming, option, outcome, pick, predetermination, resoluteness, resolution, resolution, resolve, result, resultant, selection, sortition, split decision, termination.
Cutting off - division - detachment of a part … The act of deciding - act of settling or terminating, as a controversy, by giving judgment on the matter at issue - determination, as of a question or doubt - settlement - conclusion – ‘The decision of some dispute.’ -- Atterbury. An account or report of a conclusion, especially of a legal adjudication or judicial determination of a question or cause; as, a decision of arbitrators; a decision of the Supreme Court. The quality of being decided; prompt and fixed determination; unwavering firmness; as, to manifest great decision.

Decision}, {Determination}, {Resolution}. Usage: Each of these words has two meanings, one implying the act of deciding, determining, or resolving; and the other a habit of mind as to doing. It is in the last sense that the words are here compared. Decision is a cutting short. It implies that several courses of action have been presented to the mind, and that the choice is now finally made. It supposes, therefore, a union of promptitude and energy. Determination is the natural consequence of decision. It is the settling of a thing with a fixed purpose to adhere. Resolution is the necessary result in a mind which is characterized by firmness. It is a spirit which scatters (resolves) all doubt, and is ready to face danger or suffering in carrying out one's determinations. Martin Luther was equally distinguished for his prompt decision, his steadfast determination, and his inflexible resolution.

The Visitor (NPM re-vision 9/12)

.

One who visits – one who comes or goes to see another, as in civility or friendship – ‘This great flood of visitors.’ – Shakespeare. A superior, or a person lawfully appointed for the purpose, who makes formal visits of inspections to a corporation or an institution – ‘The king is the visitor of all lay corporations.’ – Blackstone. Someone who visits, visitant, caller, company, guest, invitee, traveler, traveller, visiting fireman … To have a visitor in your dream means good news will reach you. It also foretells of new conditions or changes. Seeing a darkly dressed visitor, forewarns of illness or accidents that might befall on you or someone you know.
