Isn't it funny that in order to get up off my lazy ass and post my Final Video Art I piece I am required to sit my lazy ass in front of a computer to do it? No? I know. It's actually really, really sad.

All false humility aside I am really proud of how the audio came out in this piece. I used a binaural beat generator for OSX and recorded various frequencies and patterns.

I don't think this video is slander. I'm not calling him a homophobe or anything though he very well could be. The title was actually the last thing I came up with but I feel that it is really important to understand. Anyway that's me (back when I had hair) he's courting so maybe he'd feel more comfortable knowing he's the one in control.

Piece #2 is up and I'm using youtube this time. Google Video felt too slow and not public enough. Plus everyone uses the Youtube ne?

I shot this in March for our second project. The stipulations for the piece was that it had to be shot within the small studio in Little Hall on campus. The audio was taken from this recent narration of an 80 year old film strip that recorded a conference in Brussels that was attended by the scientific Titans of the early to mid 20th century.

Anyway I liked how it came out and I hope the resolution/compression/whatever of the file on the internet hasn't mangled it or anything. Enjoy.

(Edit: err so aparrently youtube and Blogger aren't agreeing on any sort of alignment so my litttle blog looks even more like shit. I have no idea what to do so until I figure it out I'll just keep it looking extra shitty. )
