Reaching Toward Infinity

Video clip from Reaching Toward Infinity, 2008 by Anna Peach
This video was informed by my investigation into optical refraction and Infinity theory. This piece used prisms as both the subject and object used for the creation. I replaced the broken lens on my old icefishing camera with a piece of crystal from a chandelier, then used the remainder of the prisms as the subject. In the editing room, I created a two track video with the same video chain playing in two opposite directions (one forward, one backwards) so that for one instance they meet.
