". . . Nevertheless, Fogel pushes these pictures of escalators and suitcase-toting travelers deeply into lyrical, Rorschach-symmetrical abstraction. In the course of moving from video to film, the images become flattened into painterly icons and patterns; their contrast has been increased, and the colors shifted into gemlike purples, greens and blues. Edited with a primal shape-based rhythm, Airport Architecture was created for a live musical accompaniment by Greta Cohn and James Hoff." —Ed Halter
"Super 8 images of a cellophane-covered male body floating in water are blown up into two separate movies—one video, the other 16mm—which screen simultaneously as superimpositions upon one another, further altered through colored gels placed in front of the projectors.

The Light Touch Dust Nebula is a hand-painted film, optically printed with carefully controlled temperature and lighting. Thermotropic (temperature sensitive) liquid crystal paint applied to decayed film changes from red to blue with heat. In-camera optical effects expose the contrast between the two extremes. This film exposes the warmth of light and its birth to form and motion in cinema.
Gossamer Conglomerate consists of hand-manipulated material, optically printed under closely controlled and monitored lighting situations. The film explores the delicate nature of film by placing the fluttering colors of "fresh" film materials upon a colorless base of film destroyed by the molecular breakdown associated with "vinegar syndrome." The film represents the life cycle of film and its rebirth as a new and personal work and is suggestive of a butterfly's flight from the darkness of the chrysalis.
