Drift Strategy

In hopes of discovering new and exciting elements of the the city around me, I set off on a drift around Milwaukee with a focus on finding interesting images and short videos with my digital camera. My strategy while I traversed the city was to draw a circle on the map and try to cover as many of the streets within that circle as I could. This strategy will hopefully allow me to explore areas of the city I normally don't visit or pass by every day but just ignore. After "drifting" long enough to collect a wide variety of material I will go back to the lab play around with some interesting relationships I can find within my images and videos in five rough-cut video sketches, and then rework those into three final videos. This blog will be an example of my work in progress. I hope you enjoy the results as much as I enjoy the process.
