EVIDENCE SERIES COMPLETE
45min color sound 2010-2018
SD 1.33 (4x3)

Comprised of varying fragments, formats, scraps, noise, silence, textures, and possibilities. A detectives wall of pursued and abandon threads, lines, links and thought islands. Evidence is collected, connected and interpreted. A tool to be used by the viewer to regain understanding of what is lost. The links are malleable; the ideas ephemeral, the focus not always clear. The evidence mounting with each revelation.

EVIDENCE I
1min video, color, sound, 2010
An impromptu action shot on a flip phone sets the stage. The most "searching" of the ten films. This film acts as a load stone to the series and sets the themes and styles to be recapitulated, examined, and re-contextualize. Importantly,
- Birds as augury or intuition as a last connection to nature.
- The relationship of image to the printed word, or latter the spoken word.
- The interceding stance taken between humanity and nature.
- Physical and mental cages.
- Action and responsibility.
- A list of things.
This film could bookend the series and act as prologue and epilogue but, by not doing so looking back is encouraged.

EVIDENCE II
2min video, color, sound, 2012
Is a found footage film and acts as a control group. It compares, to some degree, the impromptu of seeing to the impromptu of finding while expanding themes.
- The emergence of weather as "all things."

EVIDENCE III
30sec video, color, sound, 2014
Reinforcing the idea of the observational. The Apis mellifera drinks water then lifts off; straight up into flight. Action verses force. The pattern within gravity becomes vivid. Nature and urban life have a near miss.

EVIDENCE IV
3min video, color, sound, 2011
Contemplating the mimicked exercise of leaving earth, escaping a gravitational pull. Looking and looking away. Problems solved?

EVIDENCE V
13min video, color, sound, 2012
Solutions pondered through order, generosity, stewardship, and responsibility. Love and death mocked.

EVIDENCE V
I2min video, color, sound, 2011
Inevitable vows, inevitable bows, the natural course of the natural force, till death.

EVIDENCE VII
2.30min video, color, sound, 2015
Domestic abiding - Deep caring - The watchful eye that observes - To read one life is to know another.

EVIDENCE VIII
1min video, color, sound, 2014
Reading Good Birds. RGB.

EVIDENCE IX
Buried in the heart of X. The cave that leads to the underworld is within a highway underpass.

There is no program here, just a thing to watch. The final report.
- A code to be discovered in natural patterns.
- The invisible made visible.
- In one direction the unknown. In the other memory.
- Evidence as lamentation as odyssey.
- In loving memory of M.C.R.
