[syndicate] A painting of three places

[Pall Thayer]

Hi Alan,
Thanks, glad you like it. It was really interesting to watch along with 
Atli's music because people feel compelled to find some association 
between the two. Most people thought that the music was controlling the 
visuals but it wasn't and any relationship that people saw was purely 
coincidental.

This "spatial representation" is basically a self-portrait. It's created 
by combining records of myself going about my day to day routine. One is 
me at home with my family and my aunt over for afternoon tea. Another is 
me teaching at Armuli College here in Reykjavik and the third is me 
teaching at the Reykjavik Art School.

best r.
