Arvo Part

Arvo Pärt is an Estonian classical composer. Since the late 1970s, Pärt has been working in a minimalist style that employs a self-made compositional technique called tintinnabuli. His music also finds its inspiration and influence from the Gregorian chant.Thats him there breaking down the silence.

I am beginning to realize that the best possible way to identify with the nuances of film language is through the process of editing. Having scripted, directed and edited my films, I have come to that understanding evidently .What one understands of the relationship between one shot to another or what is that invisible thought that can be made to stand out.
It is the silent noise that you wiggle out from the present exception of the ordinary. Then you have a sound that is strangely discordant to its context, and yet it could visually transport you elsewhere.
Whether its visual imagery or sound, the unintentional suddenly emerges . So it is possible to listen to human sounds, of people bustling out of a club, the subtle clink of cutlery, chairs dragging against the floor, a shutter banging to a close and footsteps fading away into the distance at the end of a track and you are visually transported into that scenario, by receiving those noise elements.
This then only gets better. Discordantly shot footage can consist of immense latent material and perfect shots can be affected to meet the essential context or play a parallel.

Never Just Looking

As I continue pulling threads from what I have been previously writing, here is another example of never just looking.Susan Meiselas is a renowned photographer working with Magnum Photos, France.Take a look at this excerpt from her work, which is being exhibited in Paris by Magnum Photos called 'Never Just Looking, here.

Seen above is a photo-narrative I particularly find interesting.A compelling equation of emptiness,physical movement and silence.This was photographed by Elliot Erwitt in 1968 as part of a photo-documentation called 'Unseen' at Biarritz, France.
