LETTTERS OF SUN GEE, Visual Concept

The experience of the mind is one of moving effortlessly from thought to an object in sight, to a sound, to text, to a familiar face... multiple stymuli coming separately and simultaneously, keeping mind in constant motion... What is the relationship of that movement, mind's own way of sorting experiences in time, and one that has to deal with constructed time-based visual experiences, such as animation, film, interactive installation? How does one design optimal time-based experience?

Looking at the poetic method of connecting the dissimilar through movement structured in time by rhythm, rhyme, tropes, prosody, etc it is curious to see what bears translation into the language of visual time based design.

An experience of a poem can yield a mental state, or space. In designing the virtual space of "Letters" this idea is implemented by turning a time based sequence into a spatial layout.

Scene 1:
"Mingled In...Thumb Long Stamps"
This is a space within a space. Simultaneously a house in a town and a mailbox on its own.
