| OUROBOROS : A Sluggish Time-Lapse Short Video |
 |
The Ouroboros is a serpent or worm who eats
its own tail. It has been used to represent
many things over the ages, but it most
generally symbolizes the ideas of
cyclicality, unity, infinity, and for this
short video, a Great Grey Slug.
Saturday night I was in Baltimore over at a
friend's house and we noticed some slugs
crawling up the walls on her back porch. A
couple hours later I found the slug on a
metal spike and decided to bring it inside to
make a time-lapse recording of the slug
moving around. After watching the recording a
few times, I noticed that it appeared that
the slug was always moving in a circle.
Unlike previous short videos that I've made
recently, I decided to add some music to give
it some extra zest. I believe chose I
Concerto in A minor, Op. 102 'Double
Concerto' - III. Vivace non Troppo performed
by Isaac Stern, but I'm not 100% sure because
the MP3 that I was given about a year ago did
not have the proper citation.
Make sure to look closely at the hole in the
side of the slug its a rather interesting
breathing apparatus. Also, if you look even
more closely, you'll see my reflection in the
pots & pans in the background.
