This project is dark, chilling, a bit creepy… but beautiful. With no dialogue the score acts as narrator, and you will find your heart rate keeping time. With no context given I found myself expecting a story line of some sort, though a couple minutes in I could already tell that this was something meant to stir a series of emotions. Often times what one would imagine in their own minds would be better (to them at least) than anything that could be created for them. The book is always better than the movie because we’ve imagined the story in our minds in lifelike detail that means something to us. We personalize it, we project our own variables onto it. A piece like this is better because of its ambiguity. We are left with our own imaginations to create the context. Unsettling images demand an emotional reaction. Art isn’t always meant to be understood. It’s meant to force us to consider perspectives other than our own. It’s meant to inspire us to think, to imagine…to feel.
I’m not sure just quite what it was I felt watching this, but I definitely… felt.
Mission accomplished.
