Mount Shasta: A Photo-Novella
Conceptual Adventures in Mountaineering!
In the near future, or perhaps the recent past:
Guided by failure and hopelessness, a ragtag team of mountaineers sets out on a adventure that transcends the normal bounds of storytelling. They seek nothing less than the summit of the sacred mountain that provides a physical path between Earth and Heaven.
Mount Shasta, is a Photo-Novella, a story told not only with words, but with photo-documentation. In the late 1990’s, contemporary artist Peter Santino, set out to make to a movie inspired by a beloved book. With the help of a group of intrepid friends, the mountain was climbed on September 9th, 2001, The cataclysmic events of two days later infused the pursuit with urgency and the story was published as a streaming Macromedia Flash project: MOUNT SHASTA, A Photo-Novella for the Internet, on the www.santino.tv website.
Now, some 15 years later, Mount Shasta returns in a form truer to the photo-novella.
