Episode 6 – Daniel Criblez discusses The 8ugs R 7ruit

Dan Criblez and I spoke about his film, The 8ugs R 7ruit (The Bugs are Fruit), his process, his use of water in the film, and more.

“The 8ugs R 7ruit, The wEird is normal, The dream is reality?
I have taken on the challenge to create the relationship between the realism and abstraction of everyday life. While observing the way my brain and eyes process things, I found the contrast very beautiful but odd. The concept of living the same ritual over and over with the routine we give ourselves gets repetitive. Although when eyes are closed there’s no such thing as repetition.”
