watching leaves grow

vaisvil

Over a month of hourly time lapse (night edited out) with 17 note per octave ambient guitar accompaniment. This is probably the longest project I’ve set out to do. I left my time lapse camera in the kitchen window filming the tree in my backyard this spring from 3/18 to 4/25. I’m fairly happy with the result and the extra long time lapse brings out movement in the tree and finally in the leaves that would be hard to see otherwise. It appears that the tree leans and moves based on prevailing winds – even modest winds. The seventeen note per octave guitar was recorded direct in. The signal path was guitar => Ernie Ball VP Jr volume pedal (250k model #6180) => Univox Super Fuzz => Sonar with Breverb using the a cappela convolution expanded to 14 seconds.
