Guildhall Bauhaus Company presents screenings of audio-visual works inspired by the Bauhaus, experimental film movements, and Igor Stravinsky’s compositions, alongside live music inspired by Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring.
I am excited to share that my new piece, “I had a very ordinary day, it was a spiral”, will be screened at the festival. This work is a re-scoring of the legendary artist Oskar Fischinger’s film Motion Painting No. 1 (1947), recorded by the Bauhaus Band and conducted by John Harle.

“I had a very ordinary day, it was a spiral”
What seems to be the age of artificial intelligence and technology is a period of transition. Techno-optimism. In the end, what we will look for is what is natural and imperfect, with a sense of humanity still in it, things that show the layers of time, layered within our skin, soul, and every breath. When everything has passed, what will remain? I brushed my skin with the drum brushes, tried to breathe the time I was given. We don’t know what waits at the end, but we follow the grain that we feel under our fingertips.
With Oskar Fischinger’s film, I hold on to something made by hand, where movement still carries the mark of a human touch. In its spirals and unfolding forms, I found a rhythm that felt close to an ordinary life. I had a very ordinary day, and it was a spiral.
