Will Holt | “4/the beginning”

"4/the beginning" is my initial foray into video art. Heavily inspired by artists like Nam June Paik & Pipilotti Rist after being introduced to them in ART 103: Understanding New Media Arts, I produced "4/the beginning" as my final project. The piece is divided into 4 sections, each with their own poem. The final lines of each poem appear on screen, available to be considered before they are recited in the accompanying audio. An instrumental ambient track pairs with the poem’s recitation, as images shot in the style of a VHS camcorder flicker on and off screen.
