"Kobresia: What Is" is a long-form experimental film or visual tone poem. This video is one element generated for Phil Garrett's performance art event/installation as part of the exhibition "Stage/Studio: Space Transformed" at the The Ohio State University's Urban Arts Space. In the installation, the film plays as both a part of a complex Isadora projection, and as the source video being fed through a network of technologies: from an iPod Touch, fed through a video splitter to vintage video equipment including a 1970 Zenith B&W TV, a Sony Trinitron field monitor, an oscilloscope, waveform monitor, and vectroscope.

DISSONANCE is composed of documentary material of diverse kinds, juxtaposed on an HD wide-screen, in a challenging formal manner. The opening sequence is composed of 3 screens, each with a single shot on it, lasting 50 minutes; the interaction between the 3 images is force which compels interest. Following this sequence are a number of other much quicker shots, often enigmatic. The conclusion is abrupt. I have no idea what it means, only that it poetically probes the meaning of life, and offers no conclusions. It is meant, on many levels, to disturb the viewer.

10th entry in the popular "Honto ni Atta. Noroi no Video" series.
