A tribute to all of the doors past, present and future.
"For tens of thousands of years human beings have been using doors to enter rooms, hallways and back yards, to get onto rooftops, to open cars, coffins, and the occasional mind. Some say that even the moon has a door in it. A door made of cheese."
Mr. Graham and Mr. Macfarlane were able to determine that the average person, who is not that average after all, opens on average about 550,000 doors during their lifetime. 550,000 doors in 75 years, 7,333 doors a year, 611 doors a month, 152 doors a week, down to a mere 22 doors a day. So lets round it off at a door an hour. A door an hour. Whether opened, closed or locked, doors are and have always been a part of our lives.
The video features a live performance of their tribute to the doors we all enter and exit throughout our lives.
This work was perfromed for the 2009 Nevada County Composers Cooperative "Wet Ink Festival of New Music".
