Sleep Piece #3 at CalArts

Just returned from a long night at CalArts! Over these last two semesters James Klopfleish, bassist and composer, organizes and executes Sleep Pieces. These are all night concerts with a series of musicians running from 10PM through Sunrise. I had never been to one until today and if there’s one thing I learned it’s to take a pillow and a blanket. It’s May in Southern California but even that couldn’t save the 3AM shivers.

I made a couple of timelapse experiments during Sleep Piece #3. Experiments, in this case, not because of the process but because of the subject. I’m still exceedingly new at creating these little videos and I am still struggling to determine what narrative (if any) I can create out of 20-second clips! For the time being though, check out these two!

1:00AM through 4:30AM
