The Japanese consider the first dream (hatsu yume) of the new year to be especially portentous. Bill Viola is a video artist concerned with the mystical aspects of physics and optical transformations. Here he plays with perspective and time, making connections between the flow of light and the flow of water. He shows us the cycle of a day that begins in light and ends in light illuminating darkness, a cycle that metaphorically symbolizes the cycle of time and creation.
a production of the Television Laboratory of WNET/Thirteen ; produced by Bill Viola.
