Working with sound artist Dorian Cozens, we set out to create an abstract, experimental piece of three thirty-second shorts. The first short is a visual reaction to the soundtrack, using found footage and found audio. The second is the soundtrack reacting to the visuals. For the third film, Dorian and Ciaran worked isolated from each other with no idea of what each other would produce. 2013; mixed media.
