  • Danny in the Airship

    Danny in the Airship is a Super 8 experimental film test that blends home movies into an early meditation on space, time, and the memory of my brother Danny.

  • Two or Three Saprophytes

    Two or Three Saprophytes is a video essay that traces a speculative history of the industrial revolution, its ecological backdrop, and its intellectual legacy of growth-based thinking. Breaking from strictly didactic or documentary forms, the film defracts its historical research through a hallucinatory poetic lens, mixing critique and fantasy to frame the interconnected histories of mushrooms, trees, coal, chemicals, machines, and capitalists as a kind of ecological ghost story.

  • Woven in Time

    Woven in Time features the wearable art creations of renowned Canadian fabric artist Evelyn Roth animated by her ‘moving sculpture company’ of dancers in collaboration with filmmaker Tony Westman. Evelyn won an ‘Etrog’ in the Best Art Direction category at the 1977 Canadian Film Awards for this timeless artistic classic. The allegorical visual narrative presents transformations of creatures that emerge from the sea, moving onto a vast desert landscape, then into a cocoon state only to be re-born into a lush landscape of color and eventual freedom.

    Vanishing Heat is part of a series of films where I explore the dichotomy between tranquility and activity in our natural and manufactured worlds. Time, motion and stillness are intertwined to express interactions that are both deliberate and accidental as energy given off by one system affects another.

  • Pocket Call

    Isolated in an old house, a man sees his daily life merge with that of a female presence that gradually invades his space. Trapped within his own home, he must confront this strangely familiar ghost.

  • Maybe…EARTH
