'Thanatopsis' is an early poem by the American poet William Cullen Bryant. Meaning 'a consideration of death', the word is derived from the Greek 'thanatos' (death) and 'opsis' (view, sight).
The idea of 'Thanatopsis' was explored in an experimental short film by Ed Emshwiller in 1962. I use this film - somewhat slowed down and pixillated - to illustrate the composition.
As always the music came first and on careful reflection the visuals were supplied.
This work, I guess, joins others of mine where 'the cinematic' is foregrounded.
