Ocean's Edge-Spirt's Journey:
Opens a Thanksgiving Weekend of Film
at Newly Renovated Vashon Theater
November 11, 2004, Vashon, WA.
Ocean's
Edge-Spirit's Journey opens
an evening of family-friendly films at the newly renovated Vashon Theater
on Friday, 11/26. Doors open 6:15 PM, movie begins 6:30 PM.
Ocean's Edge is a non-violent, nature, art movie by filmmaker, Robert Bornn,
recently relocated to Vashon. This 18-minute movie "short" is an
artistic journey through the eyes of a seabird. It sets dramatic
coastal images, evocative abstracts, and natural ocean sounds to duets
improvised by Robert with his partner, Laura Worth, also relocated to Vashon
Island. They will be available at the screening for questions. Ocean's
Edge launches a nonviolent alternative to typical "savage nature"
documentaries. Six original, instrumental ballads performed by Robert
and Laura are woven together with Robert's natural visuals.
This lyrical movie, without narrative, was filmed on digital videotape
at sunset with nature providing all the "special effects." Visit
www.seadriftmedia.com to download a free sample of the Ocean's Edge
DVD.
Also, www.bornn.com and www.coachworth.com provide more information about
the artists and samples of their music and art.
For more than four decades Robert Bornn
has created a wide variety of films and images. In 1968 his first
lyrical film, Mandarin Orange Matrix, was screened at the historic
Filmmakers Cinematheque in New York City. Robert and Laura have also each
been making music for more than four decades. Prior to developing
the duo style of Ocean's Edge, they built a musical ensemble,
DIAJ
(Drummers in a Jam). Robert produced their album, Pangaea:
Old World, New Visions, on which their melodic and rhythmic improvisations
are featured with lead vocalist, Ma Boukaka, the Congolese-American entertainer
and teacher. Samples of DIAJ music are available at www.bornn.com,
www.coachworth.com,
and www.CDBABY.com.
