It was such an honor to have excerpts of “The Reach Of Resonance” selected to be part of an exhibition of California artists at the Huntington Library in San Marino, California yesterday. It couldn’t have been a more beautiful Sunday to enjoy their awe-inspiring collection of artwork (such as the famous 18th century “Blue Boy” and “Pinky” paintings), literature (including an original Gutenburg Bible, 15th century illuminated manuscripts of Chaucer’s “Canterbury Tales,” and original letters of Charles Dickens), and botanical gardens. http://www.huntington.org/
“The Reach Of Resonance” in Science Magazine!
April 27, 2012
“The Reach Of Resonance” is one of 9 films chosen by Science Magazine (out of the 180 screened at last month’s DC Environmental Film Festival) to be reviewed in its current issue, released today. Here is a sample from the review:
“Have you ever heard Earth’s magnetic field as melody or listened to a plant as part of a musical ensemble? What would an urban riot sound like if transcribed for string quartet? Can a piece of music be defined by geographic rather than chronologic length? Through its examination of the role of environment in the creation of music, and the deeper exploration of the environments created by these sounds, the film achieves its goal of finding meaning in music beyond mere aesthetic pleasure.”

Steve Elkins Interview On San Francisco’s KPV Radio!
April 1, 2012
This weekend, San Francisco’s KPV Radio has been airing an interview with “Reach Of Resonance” director Steve Elkins as part of their “One Loves Only Form” program. The program is curated around how concepts of space have evolved with current technology, and has become more psychological than physical. It explores the ways virtual, expanding boundaries of space affect how people relate and interact with their understanding of space now, and the ways in which Elkins’ previous and forthcoming films explore these notions from highly unorthodox perspectives.
