an idea.

after a day of fucking around with video clips with a discovered version of after effects that actually works ( for how long? i don't know...) a few hours laying on the floor and staring at nothing.... and a few hours of laying on the futon outside,

it hit.

an idea that consumed the better part of the night, and surprising enough, seems to be a fairly decent idea that has some weight.

sturdy.

what it is... .

we will have to come back to this one. at a time when it is finished... yes?

ok.

sounds good.

now. for video clips....

i don't claim to be a great video editor. nor even mildly good. in fact probably pretty damn bad.

but i have always had a weak spot for video installations.

and i want to make one....

so. there you go.

also, it is kind of the point. with these tools that are so available, and so readily offered and advertised, " to make you a great 'musician' , ' director', 'artist', or 'whatever' their target audience is the goal is to make everybody capable of creating something unique. everybody now has a chance to be an artist, musician, or director.... all thanks to these tools that have be given.

almost, in a sense, taking the uniqueness out of a thing as it becomes more mass produced.

art has long been industrialized... but it has gone a step further now, in the fact that every one now has the chance to 'be the artist'. with a few swipes, you got something neat.

don't get me wrong, i love my ipad, iphone, and all my mac shit.

the point is...

is it unique anymore if everyone can do it?

is there any room to be individual and different anymore?

very hard to be....

been there done that. blagh blagh blagh.

but so...

in any case.

that is somewhat one of the points of this new series i work on....

among others...

it is just one big shmorgus board of mixed media stuff.
