All That Glitters and Goes Bump in the Night

All that glitters isn't treasure. Not everything that goes bump in the night does us harm. Some things are nearly equal parts glitter and bump. All That Glitters and Goes Bump in the Night is a reflection on our often distorted perceptions of the objects, situations, and people around us, and how these distorted perceptions cause undue negativity, unfounded positivity, and overall confusion about what makes one truly happy. On a technical level, the work explores the parallels between moving image and audio art, including the creative process itself. The parallels between the basic elements of the two media (texture, layer, color, density, and the scaling of time and frequency), and methods for transforming the digital data were explored in creating this work.
