ALEXIS GIDEON
Portlander Alexis Gideon is one of the city's most multitalented artists. His newest stop-motion animated film has not only an intriguing origin (it is a modern opera based on the writings of early 20th century Irish writer Lord Dunsany) and is full of painstakingly, exquisitely crafted images; it's also literally a 38-minute music video (the third of Gideon's extended-short series). Gideon's considerable abilities as a scenarist and animator are rivaled by his musical gifts; his composition for 'Floating Oceans' is a strange, often thrilling mix of ambient, psychedelic, classical and even a bit of hip-hop.
