But in fact if you look at film as a metaphor, only through the negative can you have the positive print. What I'm trying to get to is the positive value of negation.

The normal cut in a theatrical film is anywhere from 3 to 6 seconds. That means thousands of images in a film over a couple of hours. In Visitors the cuts come every 70-plus seconds. The point of view is that the stiller one can be the more open to their senses they become. The whole world is quick right now. If things can be slowed down they stay in memory longer.

Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe, so we are no longer conscious of its presence.

I think there's an enormous value to being negative. The world we live in today, negativity is not permitted.

Technology is not neutral.

In effect, I feel like a blind, deaf, and illiterate person working through the sensibilities and multiple, real talents of other people. Everything I do is collaborative.

What I'm trying to do is to at least raise a flag to the blinding light of technology.
