shrek and rodney graham

tonight's my date with maria, pizza, beer and shrek.......so romantic. anyway the AGO was great, there was this exhibition by a fellow called rodney graham. it was a lot of looping video segments and audio stations. there was this one video that was cinnamon granules on a stovetop as it heated up. sounds boring but it was shot in some weird filter so all you saw at first was a black screen, then these little twinkling lihgts start appearing. after awhile more and more appear and form into this spiral pattern. soon the filament itself is heated so its a solid spiral. then it loops back to the beginning. its all in black and white. really cool.
