Edges is the final segment of a video trilogy that began last year with "Notes On Oblivion".

The trilogy, "Prima Momentum", addresses three aspects of the drive to exist: The drive to assign meaning/understanding ("Notes on Oblivion"); the urge/dream to go beyond oneself ("Icarus at the Gulf"); and "Edges", a video poem that paints the feeling tone of the drive - explores the exhilaration of the senses - which draws us to the powerful line between curiosity and fear, ugliness and beauty, exposure and withdrawal.
