CITY OF THE FUTURE
I rented Tarkovsky's 'Solaris' again last month after seeing the Soderbergh remake in LA last November and thought it would make for a good remix/treatment project...
I've always had a favorite part of 'Solaris': 'the city of the future' - as it is titled on the DVD release...the entire scene is recorded from the point of view of the astronaut as he drives to the city on the highway...the sound design for this particular scene has always haunted me...along with the sound for Eraserhead it is some of the best sound art in a film I can think of (other than Stalker that is)...
I thought the title was fitting due to the current world situation...it is not an overt political theme for the project but it implies hope for a city in the future...so while this could mean 'Baghdad' it could also mean the city you live in/near or a city you like to visit...a city could also represent any large collection of various types and races of people...
in any event, this is meant to be a productive, constructive, creative theme expressing hope for the future...
