Each cinemagraph is created from one of Ray's stills, and sets it in infinite motion, making a unique moment in time last forever. These cinemagraphs inspired André Heuvelman from the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra to get together with pianist Jeroen van Vliet to record a very moving custom soundtrack, which I combined with a selection of the cinemagraphs. You can see the original cinemagraphs at http://armanddijcks.com/cinemagraphs-waves Ray's images can be found at https://raycollinsphoto.com André Heuvelman's music: http://andreheuvelman.com The soundtrack is available here: https://soundcloud.com/armanddijcks/the-infinite-now

The Infinite Now

 

ocean Wave cinemagraphs in collaboration with Ray Collins

What if you could experience a single moment forever? That was the idea behind The Infinite Now, the first series of cinemagraphs and subsequent short film created in collaboration with ocean photographer Ray Collins.

Ray photographs oceans waves from a unique perspective, showing the amazing shapes and colors created by the interaction between water and light. Although a photograph is captured in a split second, these moments are stretched into infinity in The Infinite Now. An infinitesimal sliver of time is stretched to allow the viewer to enjoy it indefinitely.

The Infinite Now has been featured in hundreds of articles and blog posts worldwide and has received the coveted Vimeo Staff Pick.

The original score was created by André Heuvelman and Jeroen van Vliet. In 2008 a live performance premiered at the Live Cinema Festival in Rome under the name The Infinite Now Live. Since then it has been performed in several locations around the world by André and pianist Mike del Ferro.

The cinemagraphs from the Infinite Now collection are available in 8K resolution. The film is available in 4K resolution.
