The Changing Light

The Changing Light began as a response by Scott McKnight and Michael A. Knutson to growing ownership of terms such as "Northwest Mysticism" by wealthy, elitist art biographers describing the works of legendary artists such as Mark Tobey, Morris Graves, Kenneth Callahan and Guy Anderson. Determined to "show an example of the meaning of meaning", the two agreed upon a film project in which neither one would see each other's painting or poetry until it was initially compiled, then sent to Patrick Taylor and David Brown, who started the montage production. All this while, the painter and the poet sat in on local Seattle bands rehearsals to find music for the soundtrack, all of which was produced by Gary Mula with the addition of his own songs, sometimes redubbed and played backwards. The final result stands as one of best examples of raw Pacific Northwest artist philosophy and mindset, combining native themes, eastern thought and urban cultural modernity. It is brave and honest work.
