Stunning!!! I was going to say Genius, but the guy before me said that....very impressive and imaginative. I have to ask the obvious...how long did this take to shoot?
johan rijpma 5 months ago

Thank you for the nice comments, I worked on this project for about 6 months. I tried many different compositions and then made a selection. A single composition could take more than 12 hours to develop/breakdown.

(the spinning of the plate was done by hand, turnin the plate about 0,4 degree's every 30 seconds, this meant i was standing in the wind and the rain for hours watching the tape "grow" and watching the sun come up/go down)

Ashley Eisner 5 months ago

A lot of time, effort and dedication went into this, I like the piece! I thought the shots where the tape rolls are "rising from the ground" are much more visually interesting. I would love to see more exploded views of your tape roll formations. Example: 1:35-1:37 & 1:57-1:59. Great work, keep it up!

Actually, it does (watched it the first time with sound off, incidentally).

Not to say the sound wasn't an improvement, just that it blew my mind without it too.
