    my friend always talks about Throbbing Gristle. is that where the seagulls came from or did you add that?

    It's a track called "beachy head". The 'gulls are already in it but I think I would have added the sound regardless. 'Gulls are the vultures of the sea.

    the effect here tends to make the grizzly palatable.

    This is one of a few pieces of footage I did not really edit at all in the end. I just added the sound and treatment and was taken by the strange concurrencies that occurred. The intention was to make something as the title suggests "stark" and dismal perhaps while creating an ominous beauty around it.

    The thought that I may be profiteering on the misery of others arose. The fine line of what would constitute as fine taste and fine art was questioned. There are moments such at 1:53 and even the closing seconds where the flow images just create a chill in me. I always have found death can capture a truly captivating and stoic quality that can still frighten and bewilder.

    Okay.
    Something about this wash technique makes it "pretty" and nostalgic. I guess you are trying to play with that feeling.
    I have no idea what is happening at 1:53 and it reads as a rather nice arrangement of figures only.

    however, the face at 1:56 is really quite amazing.

    The corpses remind me of Henry Moore's tube drawings from the war, but I was questioning in my own head how a machine effect designed to imitate the painterly leaves out the key, which is the human hand and that strange conveying of emotion through dirt across time (most paints being little more than fancy filth and charcoal nothing more than ashes and ink is ashes with tears)

    Fantastic sounds too.
