278 West 113 Street is where Harry Houdini resided, just down the block from Morningside Park.
Who’s Afraid to Listen to Red, Black and Green by artist Kevin Beasley is a series of three installations, each featuring a color of the African-American flag. The “acoustic mirrors” were created out of red, black and green t-shirts cast in resin. The three installations are set high up within Morningside Park, on a landing best reached from 113th Street and Morningside Drive, a location for contemplation, conversation and planned performances.
This clip was captured with a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera and a Sony PCM M-!0 hand held recorder. The 21mm Super Lentar lens was mounted to a Metabones Speed Booster. A 5 stop ND filter was used on several shots to allow a large iris.
