Time Waits for No One Is a Series of Photos and Videos using my Nanna’s old Photo Slides from the late 50’s to possibly around 70’s. My Nanna passed away in 1996 and the suitcase full of slides were stored untouched at my sisters house. Following my sisters passing in 2018 I began digitilising all of her slides ,at one point there was some technical problems and the digitalised images vanished from the hardrive. I’ve never gone back to digitilise the whole archive again though certain images stuck with me and alot of the slides were organised in boxes with the name of the location – possibly holiday destinations.

The intersection

One set of images which I was particularly drawn to was a set of images taken near an intersection where my nanna lived of a procession of 1920’s cars alongside the 1950s cars of the time. I was particularly drawn to this set of images as it was similiar to my initial project exploring frame by frame moving images ” Motion Marinade “.

With this set I initially aligned the frames and made a video I later explored the modern influences of technology and made a augmented Reality Filter of the animation reducing the opacity and returned to the location to capture a video. The scene has changed dramatically over the 60 plus years the previous railway crossing being replace with a train overpass and modern day cars

A place of beloning

A Place of Belonging is another Slide overlay video of a few slide images taken probably in the late 50’s early 60’s of a beach on th Mornington Peninsula near where I lived at the time , probably taken on a holiday or day trip my Nanna went on . The location was identified from a couple of other sides in the box. So as to keep the video without much movement I didnt use the augmented Reality Filter , I layered the images over the top i post production.

Bourke Street Mall- Melbourne 1960?

Amoungst my Nans Slides was quite alot of street photos-The research of the buildings led me to this location at The Bourke Street Mall in Melbourne. With this Video i mearged the old and new and made an augmented reality filter with the slide imaged and captured the video. The technology would have been incomprensionable 60 years ago
