At the Edge of a Breakdown
"The logic of the eye with its need for balance and symmetry", is in a breakdown. The edge is a line, the spatial definer of the heavens. Horizon plane is an issue of time and space, submissive to the edge. In its break down, lies the breakdown of the eyes logic. Proceed to the edge.

As a precedent i considered Lebbeus Woods' "The Storm" and "The Fall" installations. A series of architectural activations within two sites to invoke the memory of the collapse of the World Trade Centers. An activation of materiality, then frozen in time and space. The film i experienced was Andrei Tarkovsky's "Nostalghia", a spatially meditating cinema of a Russian poet's longing for his homeland while working on a book in Italy. Its trance like cinematic transitions from reality to memory are seamless. I will post my write up once i make some final additions to the concepts of the film and relative truths of earlier readings.
very good..it is much stronger visually ...it is still mostly about geometry and abstract space..
the viewer is allowed inside......that you achieve....what is still not present sufficiently
is a suggested link to the notion of "HEAVEN"...that is the "narrative" , the story and program for your film based on your metaphor. Yes, you show the sky,manny times, and the sky is a symbol of heaven but most people will not get it. The question is, how can you introduce in the film new elements that may amke the mental association to the "concept of heaven" easeier to achieve.
Lets talk about that.
