Overview Of My Technique... And A Bit More!   The process and methods I employ in creating my art is a synthesis of photography, mathematics, music, image processing and any other processes or technologies that enable me to stretch the envelope of my ability to compose the final visual statement. This is acutely represented in my 'abstract' work and to a lesser degree in my 'representational' work. The end result - my final, finished piece, corresponds to painting, drawing, printmaking, photography and perhaps even filmmaking. I utilize and experiment with canvas, paper, plastic, metal sheets, photographic paper, computers, still and video cameras. However, my work defies classification by medium. Not unlike filmmaking, I compose and ‘direct’ my actors – light, form, patterns, colors, shadows, reflections, bits of images, etc. to form a visual gestalt. Then I introduce music – the energy from the harmonic vibrations inherent in the music – to this composition. The energy patterns and harmonics is transferred onto the visual gestalt and modulates and transforms it further. For me, these final images resonate with things that exist just below the level of consciousness. As I create them, they begin to be revealed. I stop at a point at which they no longer seem to be just coming from the unconscious, ‘imaginal’ place deep within the recesses of the universal mind. I stop when I sense a genesis, when the components come together and have a life of their own and exist with a meaning and purpose. My stopping point in this process sometimes seems arbitrary, however, I know better. It’s a fragile quiescent point of contact between reality and illusion. I’ve encountered many ‘traditionalists’ who (these are no different from those who are myopic in everything in their life) have difficulty in experiencing and appreciating anything beyond works created in the ‘traditional’ manner – i.e. oils, acrylics, canvas, etc.. To me, these 'masses' are no different from those who held onto the belief that the ‘world is flat’ and allowed this belief to imprison themselves. I firmly believe that I, and others like me, am at the vanguard of a revolution in art. A turning point that will crack the arrogance and ignorance that hold many critics and dogmatic ‘old-guard’ purists back. We are about to unleash an unprecedented new age in art. An age that will fully embrace ‘cyberspace' - this fantastic information/mathematical universe created by humans - as an unbounded creative realm. New tools that molds, sculpts and transforms information will offer us unprecendent creative license. An age where cyberspace will be seen as the analog of our inner space – our mind, our consciousness and our sub-consciousness. An age where inner space will be recognized is a conduit to the infinite possibilities of thought and as the never ending fountain of personal creative energy. (con't on next page...) Page  1 of 3
