"Lunar Almanac initiates a journey through magnetic spheres with its staccato layering of single-frame, long exposures of a multiplied moon. Shot in 16mm Ektachrome and hand processed, the film's artisanal touches are imbued with nocturnal mystery." - Andréa Picard, TIFF Wavelengths, 2014
"Harnessing chance as much as film's innate technical abilities, Lunar Almanac is an exquisite miniature of wonderment." - Ana Husman, Johann Lurf and Andréa Picard, 25 FPS, 2014 (Honorable Mention)
Lunar Almanac traces the observational points of the lunar cycle in a series of visual notations. Using single-frame and long-exposure photography, the unaltered, in-camera editing accumulates over 4000 layered field views of half-moons, new moons, and full moons. These lunar inscriptions flit across the screen with a frenetic energy, illuminating nocturnal reveries that pull at the tides as much as our dreams.
