Pacific Surfliner: San Juan Capistrano
Pacific Surfliner is one in a series of videos that map the route of the Pacific Surfliner along the California coast – San Diego to San Luis Obispo. In so doing, they trace a kind of life story of a certain generation in time – arrivals and departures over the years, joy and loss. While San Juan Capistrano is a kind of central piece, touching on many life transformations, each piece takes a central emotion from its location. The individual videos are layered with images, sound, and text –experimenting with storytelling modes.
Author's statement:
Spoken screens: the gap between presence and performance. One of the challenging issues with e-literature has been the relationship between reading a work and watching it performed. Some time-based or video work discourages the performative reading aspect altogether. Pacific Surfliner suggests a new approach – a text-rich, time-based piece that can be performed (or read silently).
