Background
Kosmosaic
Productions was started in order to facilitate the production of the
film Dark September Rain, but was always intended to be a banner
for future projects. The goal of Kosmosaic Productions is to use the
tools of 21st Century media to explore the ideas of collective and individual
growth; to bridge the gap between the many facets of social and cultural
change embodied by the forces of globalization and the profoundly transformative
energies of a spiritual practice rooted in the world's wisdom traditions.
Future Kosmosaic Productions
projects will focus on using metamedia techniques to tell stories and
move audiences. Metamedia literally means to go beyond or to transform
media. It refers to emerging media technologies that offer the possibility
of media-fusion, or the integration on various levels of many different
media systems and techniques. For example, a metamedia web site might
fuse the mediums of written text, digital video, photography, painting,
3D sculpture, animation, ambient sound, music, and even live theater to
tell a story. The various media would be integrated and hyper-linked in
a manner that gives the user access to it in both linear and non-linear
forms.
Production Philosophy
While it would seem that guerrilla style filmmaking is what we would be
attempting with our productions, we are actually aiming for something
else; Something that isn't trying to fight the system, but is trying to
be creative in it's own way. The idea, in part, is to reclaim the process
of making art from the commercialized sphere and return it to the artist,
and moreover, to make it an integral part of life, rather than leaving
it as the ghettoized province of profit-driven production companies. At
the same time we strive to recognize that each project must be profitable
or it jeopardizes our ability to create future projects.
Every enterprise should feel natural. It should feel like people getting
together to create a mural, raise a barn, or plant a garden. The focus
should be on making sure that everyone enjoys themselves, that each person
finds the endeavor rewarding, that what we eventually produce has meaning;
reflecting the beautiful and simultaneously painful realities of the world
we live in, and that everyone is rewarded for their efforts in a manner
that allows them to continue creating work of value and importance.
Future Projects
The next project for Kosmosaic Productions will be a film and metamedia
site for Geoffrey L. Breedon's comedy Pop!
Culture: The Future of America™.
