SYNOPSIS: "Human memories, suspended on 8mm film emulsion, are subject to the ravages of time, revealing the nature of life's impermanence and a recognition of mortality.  In this liminal space of chemical chaos, artistic beauty belies a transitional state, where vestiges of ghost are left to temporarily linger in the shadows, before their final descent onto oblivion."

Music for this film was selected for its psychoactive interplay with the imagery from the album KALENDIS, by OXIA PALACE [Brian McWilliams and Jan Roos] on  2024 Geophonic Records.
