Recording the Flame: Woodfired Pottery
"Recording the Flame: Woodfired Pottery" is a 40 minute, documentary video. The video offers the unique opportunity to hear the thoughts, sentiments and philosophies of some of the world's great, contemporary woodfire potters.
It explains woodfired ceramics and traces the history of its use through the ages, emphasizing its relation to the other Japanese arts, especially the influence of the Japanese Tea Ceremony.
With a beautiful and sensitive presentation with an original score for koto, the ancient Japanese stringed instrument, the work is dramatically animated to engage both beginning and serious potters and students and the faculty in the Arts, Religion, History, Asian Culture, Philosophy and Anthropology, as well as those interested in video and filmmaking, computer graphics and multimedia.
