forever lost in the archive of the internet (cutting some unused footage from the archive collection that I made for “Where Do Ideas Come From?”)

is it dominoes or snake game? or simply just dancing dots? (collected sounds, again, from: Raymond Scott)

found some old train tickets (collected sounds from: Raymond Scott)

I am beyooond excited to share that my short film ‘Where Do Ideas Come From?’ has been selected for International Film Festival Rotterdam! @iffr waaaahhhhh According to David Lynch “ideas are like fish. And you don’t make the fish, you catch the fish.” The film embodies a world where all of these found elements can converge, illustrating how something new can emerge simply by making connections. What are ideas, where do they come from, what do you feel when you get an idea or, perhaps worse, when you have none? ‘Where Do Ideas Come From?’ is a short film that consists out of found footage, sounds, and words, composed solely of quotes, that are brought together to playfully explore the relatedness between these seemingly random finds. A film by Joysi Olijhoek @isyoj Music by Beau Zwart @beauzwart Title design by From Form @from.form With voices of Natasha Natso @natashanatso , Russel Binns, Shiraz Engineer, Will Brood, Jennifer Dean and Joysi Olijhoek 🧩🫶

It has been a while… I might start posting again and wanted to start with this. A piece I’ve been working on for the past few weeks. This is the intro of a short documentary about @eelcowortman called Geluk. Edited on paper. Eelco, thanks for trusting me, I loved spending time with you and working on this. Full version next week (?) Drums by: @kovacs_miki
