Run On

Here is the final edit of my piece for this confounded Disassemble / Reassemble project we've had in the past few weeks in college. I decided to go for a three minute edit in the end in direct response to a call for artists I saw a few weeks ago for a local radio station (in Roscommon if I remember correctly) which specified a three minute limit on pieces of sound art for air play. So, after assesement on Monday, I'll be putting together a CD with this track and a few others to send off to that show. Should be interesting to see what they make of the various pieces.

Below is a video I've put together over the weekend. The dialogue comes from a bit of scribbling which turned into a loop quite organically and which seemed to lend itself to the format you see below. Immediate problems with it are(even in the uncompressed AVI which is better quality than the video below), relatively low resolution and an annoying buzzing on the soundtrack which I removed, but at the expense of the general clarity of the sound. These are both problems of equipement quality and should be fixed by borrowing a better camera and hopefully a stand alone recorder from college. Once I've got it down to perfection - I would plan on trying to screen it somewhere - this would be the first video I've had screened in its own right for a few years in fact... I've been waiting to come up with something awfully clever...
