Old notebooks are full of ideas which keep resurfacing. They may manifest in different ways but below the surface there’s the core of an idea which was also present in the last iteration.
The photographs of Eadweard Muybridge need no introduction but his concerns were not my own when these were taken in 1982. His was a very scientific approach to the study of locomotion in animals especially the human. I was interested much more in the image itself, the interaction of one frame or exposure with another creating a secondary form related to but not dependent on its original source.
The model was a friend of mine Eric Rainey, someone with whom I lost contact many years ago.
