A few steps

Two video animations

 

A few metaphorical  steps outside

- Every footprint is a song...the song of life...painted on the sand...painted in air…
(Nanao Sakaki 1976)

Each step is represented by a short animation of the 10 stages of the process involved in making a lithographic print of the word STEP written one hundred times. The print is one of the pages of the PRAELUDERE (ballades from the 20th century) score.

The location of each animated walk is suggested by the soundtrack, a field recording from a free online resource that the images and steps are edited to.
