Film & Video

A boy who was born blind, suddenly at the age of seven sees a light. A medical examination reveals that his eyes are so dense that it takes seven years for the light to reach the retina and hence for the image to reach his consciousness.The consequence of the eye defect translates into the mental immaturity of the man, lack of understanding of the present and belated reflections on long-gone facts. The man is never mature enough for his age and constantly lingers on the past.A short film made in original technique representing the tactile reality of the present and 2D animation showing the past. https://kijekadamski.com/Slow-Light #animation

One year, he was just different. He traded in his red baseball cap for a tartan beret, grew a huge handlebar mustache, and let his hair grow out. Not long, exactly, but certainly on the long side for an attorney. https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/thanksgiving-is-always-ruined-by-that-one-uncle-obsessed-with-steely-dan

“There were so many people at who were musicians themselves, or knew musicians or operated labels or made vinyl for people.
