Things are changing and I don't dig it at all.
But what am I supposed to do? All I can really do is accept it.

But what does it mean for me now?


I am centering the basis of my exegesis around Laura Mulvey's book Death 24x a second : stillness and the moving image, examining the emergence of a new way of viewing the image, as a cinematic -still, with modern technology like the internet and DVD that gives the viewer the power, to pause, slow and rewatch scenes, in effect creating a cinema of moments. My images examine this break or glitch n the viewing narrative, the delay, the pause between one image and the next, the pausing of movement, or what I termed "before focus is fixed".



I will examine the "moment" esp in reference to Barthes, and reassess and e-examine both photographic and cinematic time. In effect my images form a crossover between the moving and the still, they occupy a moment of delay, a fetishistic moment, consumed and repeated.



In a sense, I have been propelled into the 21st century.
