Art Videos by Stefan StenuddMoving images
Lately, I have worked a little with the video camera and Pinnacle Studio software. Tiny experiments, mostly for the fun of it. I have put them on Youtube, but you can access them by clicking the video frames below. Here's my Youtube account, if you prefer going there: Aravadia.
 Live DrawingVideo filmed drawingI draw a portrait with some complications. It's hard to decide when to stop. I did speed the film up a bit, not to burden the patience of the viewers too much. When dogs dieVideo recitalDo dogs have ghosts? A video filmed poem about souls. I call it a syllable poem, because it consists of only one-syllable words. The dog's name is Max. It is still very much alive :) In your faceSelf-discovery by video as mirror.We know that we are, and that's about all we know, if Descartes is to be trusted. But we have no idea what that really is. We must watch and learn. The voyeur should turn toward the mirror. For that, the video camera works fine. So, here I am, watching myself, wondering. The answers to all my questions will come - any day. GrailVideo recitalGive me a drink that saves my soul... MurderVideo recitalOccasionally I contemplate murder... The beginning of a book of mine. More about the book here: Murder I like to watchVideo recitalI like to watch. Don't you? This is a video poem about the pleasure of watching. I call it a syllable poem, because it's made up of one-syllable words. What god are we talking about?Video recitalMy thoughts on the basic questions of theists and atheists: If a god exists, and if so - what kind of god? ICE hand jobsICE hand jobs. The hand moves in mysterious ways.The hand fascinates me - whether it's my own or somebody else's. It moves with such refinement that it seems to have a life all of its own. Personality, too. It is so expressive, with its own complex language and yet understandable to all. It speaks, whispers, shouts. And it is very sensual, even before contact. Erotic just by being and moving, ecstatic at the moment of touch. It is at the essence of being alive. So, I made a series of short video clips, closeup studies of the hand in action - by itself, with an object or another hand. I intend to go on, as long as my fascination does. Life, that is.Video recitalWhat's the meaning of life? And how to find it? A video filmed poem. I call it a syllable poem, because it consists entirely of one-syllable words. Love in the snowVideo recitalLove and death and snow. A video poem about how they relate. I call it a syllable poem, because it's written entirely with one-syllable words. I C UVideo recitalWho is watching, and who is being watched? Here's a video filmed poem of mine. I call it a letter poem, since it is made up entirely of single letters. OfferI don't get tired of hands and how they do what they do. What can I say? If you're biased about what kind of hand job you're attracted by, don't bother watching this video.Skyscraper appearing and disappearingTurning Torso, the Malmo skyscraper, hiding and returning. No trick of mine. I'm sorry that you have to tilt your head.Loo MusicAnother water dance, and the strange music that can be found in it. A flashy flush.Beautiful - with a bananaChristina Aguilera's song Beautiful, in a humming version with a banana. You may have trouble recognizing the song. Not for the easily bored.
