"I have an inclination to the 4th video but I'm sure you know it's because of the cats. I found myself just waiting to see them appear again; since I'm biased in that sense I can't judge it on much else. I was disappointed there wasn't a surprise cat shot in the last scene.
perhaps I need to see it with the subtitles?
"Garbage"- I was taken aback immediately by the pure feeling of voyeurism.. I felt like the star of a very glorious psychedelic slasher flick. I am set back into ease around 35 seconds in when I realize I am Ryu Hazuki following Shenhua Ling through the wilderness.
garbage 2 does not live up to garbage 1. compared the garbage 1 it felt tin-y and did not pay off until the end.
My favorite is carwindow and I was totally curious about how that came about. the style reminds me of a few pictures I made for you in the past years or so and I was really wondering if you had to add all that beautiful noise by hand or if it's some kinda effect that you can edit into that."

garbage are garbage. it's a sketchbook. i added this section to my website so i can keep track of tests and videos that are more interested in being ambient paintings. after that i copied and pasted it into this art blog.

the french video i stopped working on because cutie was killed. but i like it a lot better as it is, and i really like the ending. it is a "day in the life". judgement based on cats is infantile.

here is the transcript of the text as spoken en francais by "alain" from at&t text to speech:

"can you hear me?"

"i have something very important to tell you."

"i have two kittens."

"well they are no longer kittens really, they are grown up."

"the orange one is named cutie."

"the white one is sneaker."

"there is a high fence surrounding the yard."

"when i first got here the lock was busted."

"you can't go around with a busted lock."

"otherwise the gate would swing open when the wind blew."

"i installed a new lock."

"sometimes when i go outside the cats are over the fence."

"they play with the tiny dog in the next yard."

"they are friends."

"can you imagine that?"

"the dog chases them around."

"would you like to come play in my back yard?"
