A Million Little Dots
Last night I was lucky enough to be at the premier of the short film “The Secret of Jonny Strange” by Detroit artist Jon Strand at the Max Fisher Centre. The original score, by Judy Adams formerly of WDET, was performed last night on a grand piano to an audience of a few hundred. I very much want to get a copy of the score which is very Nightmare Before Christmasesque. The animated film features Strand’s signature ink point creations. Strand’s work is up at the Max Fisher Center till the end of July for appreciators to wonder how he has the patience to create with millions of dots. The film will be on loop during the DSO’s upcoming Eight Days in June Festival.
