Part of a series of video experiments I made during the mid-nineties under the heading: Focus Improvisations.
This was a completely un-staged, spontaneous, straight-to-tape recording.
By pure coincidence, as I was recording random focus changes, a fellow tourist with a camera walked into frame. Since I wasn’t looking through my viewfinder, he must have assumed that I wasn’t recording, and proceeded to supply me with surreal footage.
I have made many videos1 exploring focus and the meaning of blurred images. In time I will publish my thoughts on this intriguing subject.
This video was recorded at Muri Lagoon, Rarotonga, Cook Islands on the 18th of March, 1996.
