Dawn of the Dead, take 3

Finally, the last and mashed installation of my [[Dawn of the Dead]] (1978) series which took far more technical and creative energy than I originally imagined. The idea behind this experiment was simple: create three commentaries upon the social/political sub-themes dealing with consumer culture embedded within Dawn of the Dead using  [...]

Dawn of the Dead, take 2

Being good for my word, below is the second version of the [[Dawn of the Dead]] clip I published yesterday here, but this time with a running commentary of the edited scenes. It is far from perfect, and Jerry gave me a ton of good recommendations for making it better, so I will return [...]

Check out this description of his work excerpted from the Video [...]

Raiding the Internet Archive

Figured I’d start the week off right and play with some public domain video from the Internet Archive. I set a couple of clips (Babies on Parade and Television Commercials: Telephone) to the mellifluous sounds of one of my favorite bands from the early 90s: Slug (not to be confused with the West Coast rapper).
