Loneliness

I created this video after noticing that no one interacts or communicates on the public transit in San Francisco. It was filmed on a day when I traveled an entire day without human voices being spoken on muni. It is designed to make you feel the anxiousness that comes from a lack of collection. The only eye contact in the film is from advertisement on the side of the bus.

Questions From Grandma

I like grandma's questions because they are similar to the questions thousands of other Lutherans have but feel too embarrassed to ask their pastors.

I find that when I talk about faith in a way that my grandmother can understand, it's also more understandable to the typical person in the pew.

So please ease drop on these conversations and enjoy. I hope it inspires you to ask more questions about your faith and to begin talking out loud about what you believe with others.
