A Reverse Fib (2016)
Fibonacci numbers are everywhere in nature and this film. The durations of the cyan and red frames form a reverse Fibonacci sequence. The frequencies and durations of the tones form reverse Fibonacci sequences. If you watch intently you may experience colors you have never seen before! This is caused by an after image of a color being superimposed on the complimentary color creating a gamut outside the color space that the medium can physically display.

Morse (2018)
This film includes our five favorite significant messages: 1) The first American Morse Code message transmitted in 1844 by Samuel Morse himself. 2) In 1912 the Titanic transmitted the then new SOS distress call as it sank. 3) In 1956 the beacon atop the new Capitol Records Tower flashed HOLLYWOOD to promote them as the first record company based on the west coast. 4) In 1966 Commander Denton blinked a message to secretly communicate how POWs were being treated in North Vietnam. 5) The last official use of International Morse Code by the French Navy in 1997.

Prime Perfect (for Tony Conrad)
You will be sitting in the dark experiencing the unique pattern created by numbers. The vast majority of the frames in this film are black. Frame numbers that are prime numbers are white (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, … 8,123). Frame numbers that are perfect numbers are red (6, 28, 496, and 8128). For the best experience view in a dark room at loud volume.

4913 Colors (2020)
I was inspired by seeing the artwork “4900 Colors” at the The Met Breuer retrospective Gerhard Richter: Painting After All one week before the museums closed due to the pandemic. Richter’s “4900 Colors” was created by mixing the three primary colors in graduated amounts. The artist produced 196 unique panels composed of 25 squares. The placement and positioning of the panels is arbitrary. I used a computer program to combined 17 shades of each primary color and to randomly distribute them in five-by-five grids. My title frame is an homage to Richter’s “Cologne Cathedral Windows.”
