I translate an audio recording into textual animation. My friend narrates a list. For the past 8 years, she’s been keeping a list of things she likes in her notes app.
An exercise in semiotics, I was interested in how signifiers evoke images and form our relationships. By matching up words to the audio’s rhythm, playing with cadence, and integrating different layers, I sought to evoke a friend’s singularity without sentimentality using a minimum of visual elements.
