Tick tock, tick tock
The sound
kitchen machinery ringing in the ears
tick tock
there was nothing but silence besides
the sound of the timer ticking down
to it's destination
tick tock tick tock
and the sound of pots and pans being clattered together
and dishes and utensils
chop, chop, slice, dice
chop, chop, slice, dice
Prepare those dishes quickly and get them presented
Little girl, little boy
Hurry up before it's too late
tick tock tick tock
Ka'lynn,
ReplyDeleteI like your attempts to make sounds and rhythms in this camera eye. The use of both the ticking timer and the kitchen utensils/work give us the sense that this kitchen is busy, an active place with its own music and where timing is important---as it it with music. You've titled this "The Cooking Exam," which makes me think that this moment was taken from some sort of culinary education. Although the exact moment isn't clear, the impressions of speed and production come through very nicely. Good work!
