City Arts Rear Window with Adam Sekuler and Collection Agency

SEND VIDEO, IMAGES, AUDIO TO adam_ap57@sendtodropbox.com

Rear Window is a seven-hour live dance and filmmaking project I'm undertaking tomorrow with dance artist Jody Kuehner and filmmaker Adam Sekuler, digesting and distorting ordinary images, sounds, and video crowd sourced from City Arts patrons, artists, and peers all over the world.

We have a particular interest in the beautifully mundane or maybe not so beautiful everyday realities. This could be taking out the trash, clipping your nails, watching a leaf blow by, working at your job, doing your daily artistic practice.

Can you appreciate something you don't always appreciate by being asked to document and share it?

Use this quote as inspiration:

"If we do relinquish control, we suddenly see a hidden world, one that has existed all along right in front of us. . . the uncanny presence of the poetic and vibrant world, ripe with mystery stands before us." - Nathaniel Dorsky
