The Blossoming Thought – Short Documentary

theelectriclife — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 05:58:58 +0000

This short documentary explores the lack of connection in todays society. We live in a detached world, where face to face communication has been replaced with technology. Melbourne based creative, Georgia Smedley is trying to break that sense of isolation through her own way of connecting with people. ‘The Blossoming Thought Project’ is a street art movement, that tries to snap people out of reclusiveness, even if it’s just for a few seconds of their day. Now you know Melbourne’s best kept secret, we encourage you to pass it forward.

The Bad Apple Project #2 – Feeling Free

theelectriclife — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 13:56:36 +0000

This was made a while ago as part of a workshop we ran for a bunch of teenagers. We were all asked to present a piece to capture our essence. This was made to capture and communicate what longboarding does for me. It was rough and rushed shooting a little half hour skate sesh, but over all shows a piece of me.
