More From Life

In 2007 I made one drawing from life each day of the year, on a 3X5 inch index card. The subject of each drawing was arbitrary, just whatever I felt like drawing that day. Those are the "key" drawings for this film. In-between each key drawing I drew 15 "tweens" which morph or transition one key to the next, in the daily order in which they were originally drawn. 6017 index cards make up the nine minute film. Original music was composed and recorded for the film by Howard Kaufman, Bryan Osper and Nick Pires-Moore.

More From Life is a celebration of the mundane ephemera of daily life and how, in one's memory, these things run together, overlap and morph into each other and into other things as well. Also, it is a record of some of the moments in my life that, without this film, would normally have been long forgotten.
