Tower Bawher

Tower Bawher, by Theodore Ushev

I came across this incredible film by Theodore Ushev and couldn't believe I had never seen it before. The director described the process of making it as being like being in a trance, which is just how it feels to watch it. A kind of outpouring of visual memory.

I have been checking out the latest commissions by Animate projects, and really like this piece by Jordan Baseman. I was particularly struck by his editing of the original material. The original transcript is an interesting read in itself, link below.
