This is a little sample of a series of movies that I started working on in 1995, when digital video was a true novelty. The area near my house is called Pymptonville, and it's full of big, cool old houses that line a slow river with a rail line on one bank. Very industrial nostalgia; a sort of machine in the garden thing as our nostalgia continues to move forward with the rest of time. I think driving down the interstate is taken for granted now in the same way. It inspired me to make these. As I recall, it took my Mac Centris all night to composite this one without the audio.
