Cellular Welkin

My film based on the word "Welkin" as provided by Abecedarium NYC.

In trying to understand the sky and heavens above New York, I decided to take the most simple approach I could muster: observation. Everyday for two weeks I took reference footage of the sky above New York with my cellphone in the off chance that I would capture something that I haven't noticed during my day to day operations.

At the end of those two weeks of observation I met a man Jonathon (with his kids) on the sidewalk outside of a small East Village congregation and he proceeded to welcome me inside and talk with me about his perception of heaven. I recorded our conversation on my cellphone.

What better way to record the heavens that a device that constantly send signals back and forth beyond the overhead welkin.
