Wooden Churches in Russia

These photographs were taken by Richard Davies for several years, since 2002. Although the churches that remain are in varying states of decay and despite their neglect and the wrecking of their interiors, these extraordinary structures have a spiritual presence.

The Pink Noise of Pleasure Yachts in Turquoise Sea.

Gosh I Love the sound of this title of video art by Yolande Harris, and ready to get into this visionary imagery anytime. Yolande is a composer and media-artist working with sound, image and space in a technologically extended environment. She proposes a radical notion of the score in her ongoing Score Spaces research project and uses technology in her work as the means through which to understand the electronically extended spaces we inhabit.

The Pink Noise of Pleasure Yachts in Turquoise Sea. Recorded underwater at a National Marine Reserve, Mallorca Spain. August 2009

TIDES

TIDES, by Amy Greenfield, "TIDES is a cinema-dance dealing with the theme and image of woman and ocean. The entire film was shot with a high speed camera, creating action from two to twenty times slower than normal speed. Because of this extreme slow motion, the surge and flow of the woman's nude body and the waves becomes intensely felt, continually moving cinematic imagery.
