Intermittent Delight by Akosua Adoma


This experimental film has a very interesting motif of patterns. It is influenced heavily by African culture with the drums keeping the tempo of the film in the background. It shows an interesting contrast of African Culture from Caucasian Culture. From two African women weaving clothes using textile sewing machines to the white American indulging in her clothing hobby. It augments a lot of patterns and utilizes the space of the screen by filling in empty space to taking away images within transition. Overall I was very impressed with the creativity of the film and the sounds it incorporates.
