"Your life
is like a candle burning. Whether you are aware of it or not,
it is burning." (Sri Sri Ravi Shankar)
A multiplicity
of diverse images—cut together rhythmically flicker with
energy fire, light, life. (B.St)
"... a question of resettling, of
continually relooking, of jogging yourself out of a comfortable
view...and this continual glancing and reglancing seems at the
very heart of Sternberg's seeing camera practice." Mike Hoolboom
(email to B. Sternberg)
“…a
rapid, rhythmic montage that evokes the brevity of life.”
(Cinematheque Ontario program notes)
