After a long and stressful week of final exams, I am now free. FREE.
So I grab Helle, my penny board, and my Canon 60D for a little filming session on the road. I didn't go far, the locale of this video is the park at the back of my neighbourhood. I wanted to make an experimental film, so I did, and so I will. This is the start of my gigantic project; 'Mon' which means 'My' in French, and Mondays (much horrify. such terror. wow) and also Monsters. The film is based upon Freud's Psychoanalysis theory of the Uncanny and the id, also the theory of reel-life and real-life of people. We compare our backstage with people's font stage too much that we tried to make our backstage as good as people's front stage. We ended up trying too hard that we loose ourselves.
Don't go calling the depression help line/call centre just yet, I am perfectly not depressed. Not yet, anyway. Apart from the fact that I do not believe in any religion, but -at the back of my mind- I believe that the monster under my bed, or lurking in the shadow in the darkest corner of my room, is scared of me as much as kids are scared of them monsters. Maybe the reason why they are always in the shadow is because they, too, are afraid of us. Maybe they are not our counterparts, but a part of us. A part too deep inside we only see them in the dark.
I am sane.
But everyone thinks they are sane,
even the ones in the asylum.
I am sane,
as sane as sanity could reach me.
Embrace your monster.
