“Creative Evolution” starts production!

What are those fossil gaps trying to tell us? Could they be signatures of another arrow of time in evolution, not just in gradual adaptation.. but instead in a punctuated tempo representative of quantum leaps in evolution? Hmmm…..

So starts the questions on the new film in production with Dr. Amit Goswami called “Creative Evolution“ – A Physicist’s Resolution Between Darwinism and Intelligent Design

We started production in the green grass on Summer Solstice at the University of Oregon in Amit’s old stomping grounds. We had some lively conversation about the nature of reality and our part within it, and a received a powerful download. It was a great shoot, and a good start to this new documentary.

Next month we will be filming at the Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center in Woodland Park Colorado. Mike Triebold there at the Center will be letting us do some filming in their paleontology lab, as well as the exhibits for the film. Thanks Mike!

Sand Mandala Timelapse

When the Gaden Shartse Monastic Tour visited our hometown in 2008, we had the opportunity to mount an HD 1080p camera to the wall above the mandala table. We then ran the camera directly to a Macpro via firewire so it could create daily quicktimes.

The creation of a sand mandala is a sacred event that creates a vortex of intention and prayer into a tangible blessing that can be felt by anyone. The intricacy and attention to detail is unmatched, and the symbolism unparalleled.

We then compiled over 24 hours of footage and sped it up about 10,000 percent so you could enjoy it in 3 minutes instead of 3 days.

Gaden Shartse Monastic Tour

The Bluedot team has been having a lot of fun working on some promotional films for the Gaden Shartse Monastic Tour; a fund raising and outreach program from the tibetan buddhist monastery located in the refugee area of southern India. The footage in this 7:00 introduction was collected from old archival pieces from the monastery, and when we toured with the monks to Aspen Colorado in 2008.

Enjoy!
