A short experiment inspired by Anton Webern’s famed 1935 arrangement of a fugue for 6 voices from Bach’s Musical Offering. Built entirely of a succession of horizontal tracking shots which mimic Webern’s acute mapping of different instruments to the same melody lines. Filmed (using short ends left over from "contingent") in the summer of 2005 using a portable dolly system made by metal shop students at Franklin High School.
