Aurelia or Echo In Her Eyes: Part 3: A woman sleeps. She dreams of a troubling encounter with a man at a futuristic cathedral. In this dream the proliferation of a day's images is reduced and refined into more enigmatic renderings. The world of color and movement translates into one of stone, shadow and light. In the epilogue the woman, now awake, lingers over the dream scenario which has just played; she prepares new variations. The film poses the problem of defining the relationship between dreaming and waking consciousness. Aurelia was shot on location in Barcelona, Spain at the unfinished Sagrada Familia church designed by Antonio Gaudi. It is based in spirit on Gerard de Nerval's novella Aurelia.

Brainwahing: Brainwashing, shot almost exclusively inside a car wash, is a hypnotic film which functions as a metaphor for the drowning of the soul. The soundtrack consists of a condensed washing machine cycle: start, wash, rinse, dry, off.
