MUSIC, VIDEO, AND INSTALLATION
- Andrew Kaluzynski was born in Lansing, Michigan, but his family packed up a U-Haul and drove down to North Carolina with Andrew, before he was yet able to walk or speak. He spent most of his early years running through the woods, hiking and truly enjoying the Appalachian mountain range although, if you were to ask him about it, he might tell you that he would rather have been somewhere else. Throughout his early life, Andrew fostered a love for photography and performing that led him, through existential crisis, to Bennington College in Vermont. At Bennington, he studied photography, theater, music, and film as though they were the same subject, and is now living and working in the San Francisco East Bay as a Production Assistant on documentary films.

Music Video shot in Bennington VT February 2007 at 4am after many sleepless nights. The music is a blending of minimalist classical and garage band hip-hop that fit my mood swings (as do the video bits) at 4am. Video includes my own performance and footage from Carl Theodore Dreyer’s the passion of Joan of Arc circa 1928.

Road Music is a video composed out of a couple years worth of Fisher Price PXL 2000 footage. The camera was duct-taped to a tripod in my passenger’s seat to document several trips from Burnsville, NC to Bennington, VT and back.
The music was created as a technical exercise to resurrect the PXL journal project and transform it from a scripted movie to a music video.
