It has been rewritten only so far as was necessary to conceal personalities. It is a terrible story; but it is also a story of hope and of beauty. It reveals with startling clearness the abyss on which our civilization trembles.

As kid, whenever I stayed home sick from school, my mother would insist I watch something ‘educational’. This usually meant a documentary of some kind (or Mythbusters, if I was persuasive enough.) I would spend hours watching daytime TV documentaries on anything I could find, from National Geographic, to NOVA, to the History Channel, which in those days was still mostly about history. As I grew up, the topics got broader and the production value went up, but documentary film still remained my favorite way to learn. When I got to college, I kept making videos and I quickly found employment as the school videographer. It brought me such joy to be able to attend any school event, camera and ‘Press Badge’ in hand. Not to mention I got paid to be there. This started my time in Ed-Tech.                     Hebbel-am-Ufer 4 <img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/78490fd11d90e7d6425ff86a96514b090cdbd5f6577637018902f44019ae7647/Untitled_1.1.1.jpg" data-mid="199522905" border="0" data-scale="77" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/78490fd11d90e7d6425ff86a96514b090cdbd5f6577637018902f44019ae7647/Untitled_1.1.1.jpg" /> <img width="629" height="1080" width_o="629" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4e70affdfd3d536f4b9f2eb4eba1e1ea97d4c947c6a6b8f9e96145412deede8b/ACTORS-VERTICAL.jpg" data-mid="199712187" border="0" data-scale="59" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/629/i/4e70affdfd3d536f4b9f2eb4eba1e1ea97d4c947c6a6b8f9e96145412deede8b/ACTORS-VERTICAL.jpg" /> Junges Deutsches TheaterO I was approached by the Open Society University Network (OSUN) to assist in the creation of a series of short documentaries. They would become Digital Case Studies for use in University classes. At OSUN I worked on a series of documentaries showcasing how theaters in Berlin had adopted to the Covid-19 pandemic. Working with universities such as Columbia and Bard College, I created the Berlin portion of the Viral Theaters hybrid-learning course.

I have always loved and been inspired by music. Music videos are a beautiful whirlwhind of creativity, and just as the right song can take a film or video to the next level, so too can a video get a song there. A good music video can make people feel ways the song or video alone could never.  <img width="6144" height="3456" width_o="6144" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6866587957b0abcc325e78ec225926afb85525c43e9aba44f70f008fa6789489/Red-Music-Promo-2.jpg" data-mid="199722977" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6866587957b0abcc325e78ec225926afb85525c43e9aba44f70f008fa6789489/Red-Music-Promo-2.jpg" /> I wasn’t fortunate enough to know a time where MTV played music videos, but that doesn’t mean I grew up without them. Instead I would lay in bed, eyes transfixed on my iPod touch, watching the visual accompaniment to my favorite songs. As I fell asleep, I’d envision how I would make the video to whatever happened to be my favorite song at the time. Honestly, I never really stopped. <img width="1627" height="2160" width_o="1627" height_o="2160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ee588a00c305b4ac29c4bcddbfdc8c70c7e0c96b9bf930df12547105d5192fb5/Priya-Candles-Vertical.jpg" data-mid="199722268" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ee588a00c305b4ac29c4bcddbfdc8c70c7e0c96b9bf930df12547105d5192fb5/Priya-Candles-Vertical.jpg" />                     Name Me - Priya Gandhi It has been a great honor of mine to work with local musicians in cities across the world to make videos for their incredible music, and even more so my pleasure to call many of them friends. <img width="6144" height="3456" width_o="6144" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6625519b9f4fdfb658ac213988f9dea21f0ef94f83a43e0fed17dbf092d4dd33/Flaming-Hot.jpg" data-mid="199723291" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6625519b9f4fdfb658ac213988f9dea21f0ef94f83a43e0fed17dbf092d4dd33/Flaming-Hot.jpg" />            Flaming Hot Cheetos - Red Music <img width="2948" height="1200" width_o="2948" height_o="1200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2c9a867969d9792d2fda7c14092c65861e6793cd3dbb22bdcd49575a306961f3/Bumper.jpg" data-mid="199723289" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2c9a867969d9792d2fda7c14092c65861e6793cd3dbb22bdcd49575a306961f3/Bumper.jpg" />                 Bmpr2Bmpr - Mike NasaNext ︎ Photography https://aidanmaloof.com/Photography Tue, 19 Dec 2023 03:13:30 +0000 Aidan Maloof Site https://aidanmaloof.com/Photography I am constantly taking pictures, and love capturing the moments; on set behind the scenes, on the road with my friends, or in the studio.
