Camera movement / Edge

Record an edge with your audio/video camera. You are to interpret and define the scale and place of this edge. Explore the position of the camera in relationship to your body considering the movement your body could provide. Record continuously (no cuts) and without using the viewfinder. The length of the recording is up to you but should be considered carefully. ---Martha Skinner

The video camera's portability celebrates the possibility of new perspectives in the way we move through the city. Walking down the street, with the camera attached to my foot, revealed an intimate view of the edge where building and sidewalk kiss. What further emerges are the indigenous rhythms and cycles of our motion.
