Overture
of the Sacred
Letters
(11 minutes)
which
shows each of the Hebrew letters
in the torah
scribal
style for about 30 seconds
with track of special electronic music
derived
by assigning each Hebrew letter of the first chapter in
Genesis
a specific
tone
1.5 seconds long and instrument
The
complete version of the Sacred
Letters.
(72 minutes without sound)
Each of the 22 Hebrew scribal letters is
presented
as a separate module (4-8
minutes)
with
its own unique
color
scheme, video dance and special effects.
You
will find a great variation of styles, such as
from the minimalist Dalet (ד) to the wildly psychedelic (צ),
the sensual Chet (ח),
the surrealist Kuf (ק)
and the mandala symmetry of the Ayin (ע)
and more.
These
"differences" have correlations with ideas
from Kabbalah
teachings about the letters
(hinted at by the subtitle to each
module).

What
comes to mind is the famous code א-
ת
ב-
ש
(AT-BASH)
,
where
the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet connects to the last
and the
second letter with the
second from the last and so on.
A more
complicated installation would be to
place the screens
inside
large cardboard or plywood cutouts in the shape of the letters
which
would stand in middle of an exhibition space
and people would pass
through like in a maze and hopefully be amazed.

menorah
but having an artistic
and universal relevance
not restricted to the Jewish holiday alone or
a Jewish audience.
Some low

(with a sound track) are
available on YouTube:
