Cake Mag Issue 3 from Joe Wehner on Vimeo

Everyone once in a while a simple gesture opens the door to a big experience. My relationship with Joe Wehner began the day he sent me his video for Cake Magazine’s Issue #3. All Joe hoped for was that I would feature the editorial and video on AOC.

Finally Joe Wehner has his response — probably more than he expected — because he agreed to take the plunge and play some games with me. It’s a crap shoot between us, one that came out differently than even I was expecting.

Word Games | Tell Me In 20

(not intended to make sense)

After watching several of Joe’s films, I gave him 20 words asking for a 5-7 words stream-of-consciousness response in phrase or individual words. The purpose of Anne Unplugged | Talk To Me is to enter into a fluid exchange where both of us remove the familiar need to make immediate sense of our thoughts.

Joe says his talents are visual not written, but I think he did very well. Admittedly, I’m most interested in trying to help photographers who don’t answer the word ‘light’ with a technical list of terms; Joe didn’t let me down in his responses.

Sensuality: texture, sounds, movement, nourishing, illusions

Dawn: insomnia, promise, hope, fear, balance

Light: nature, god, peace, contrast, energy
