"I am not afraid... interprets a Berio electronic score, which uses stereo extensively, as part of the composition.

The images are synchronised to both the left and right ear. Watching the film reveals more detail and structure within the music.

The film uses hand drawn animation on 8mm film, which was projected, re-filmed on 8mm, using an adapted lens device and edited on computer.

The title is from Berio's last interview in 2003, and is intended not have a closing quotation mark, as the full quote is closed as the end of the film. The film and the music become a part of the meaning and expression of the quotation.

" I am not afraid... there are deep solid roots in what we do which cannot be changed or destroyed."

Luciano Berio 2003
