This is a time lapse documentation of what I call "Design Aesthetic Automatic Writing." It is freestyle writing with inspirations that come from my immediate surroundings. In this body of work, I attempt to answer my own questions that arise in the duration of the performance.
This video is comprised of 12 different poems that I wrote with similar vocabulary. Audio & text were layered to match the similar vocabulary using After Effects and Final Cut Pro.
