“I’m a city walker, and a city filmmaker of both interior and exterior phenomena, a chronicler of the invisible daily life in the city. With no fancy equipment or gadgets, I go about my business and try to blend with the crowd. Yes, sometimes I encounter resistance, and a ‘no-no’ gesture, but most of the time I’m left alone, especially in my old age—‘that crazy old man.’ Thank you.
Like breathing in and out, I trust intuition, and moment-to-moment developments. Yet I am also mindful and attracted to the mysterious and extraordinary ethereal possibilities of the mediums I work with, be it film or digital, all part of the larger and long history of the projected moving image. So life-like, yet so different! So new yet so ancient! Full of mysteries, pleasures and delight! Enjoy!”
