    I don't think this got posted, but I wanted to make sure anyone who was interested had the opportunity to support this Kickstarter project that is just a few days away from ending. Looks like such an awesome experience and project, and is the first thing on Kickstarter I really wanted to support.

    You may have seen it around on other blogs or sites, but definitely check it out and support it if you can. I'm not involved with it in any way, but having just visited Iceland for a week, and being a big fan of Tycho and other musicians involved, as well as of Tim Navis' photography, I really hope they meet the goal and get fully funded.

    This October, with the help of the Kickstarter community, a small group of filmmakers, photographers and musicians are setting out on a journey to explore the remote countryside of Iceland and document our experiences with the landscape, residents and traditions we encounter. The end result, a beautifully packaged box set of the film and companion soundtrack, will be released to backers of the project as a physical artifact of the unique and awe-inspiring experience. We can't wait to share the results with you.

    The project — anchored by internationally renowned photographers Tim Navis + Kim Høltermand and aided by film collective Scenic and composer Deru — will be unique in its improvisational spirit. The group will create a series of short films at various locations throughout the island, inspired by moments of discovery and chance occurrence. Tim's sun-drenched SoCal landscapes and Kim's cold, architectural abstractions provide the perfect visual foundation, and fans of their work can imagine how exciting a collaboration between the two will be.

    We'll be sharing our trip in inventive ways with supporters, providing a real-time window into an experience that the community helped to make reality. Upon our return, Scenic will edit a series of short films, featuring an original score by Deru and a full-length soundtrack featuring contributions from select musicians and contemporary composers. Tim + Kim will create an archival photo book and release a limited run of exclusive prints for the Kickstarter community.
