Time when traveling can be both a blessing and a curse - with much time spent waiting, minutes and hours can seem endless, while on other occasions provide the right pause for reflection and constructive boredom.
Especially in trains this often gets the mind rolling: even more than in an airplane one is a captive audience, close enough to the ground to recognise trees, ditches, roads, cars as they flit by, yet tied to tracks that are two-dimensional as the cross spaces that are at once plain and at the same time often hidden from view behind buildings and through suburbs that one would normally never set foot in.
Time can also be made to expand under such circumstances: drawn out and elongated, expanded and extended into long lines and abstract fields of colour using longer exposures. The camera is held still, the iris open and looking outward as the image builds up, layers, and eventually snips out strips of light as objects rush by. Individual lights and walls become streaks of grey, built up into parallels that resemble the same tracks the train is traveling on, with the darkness in between.
