i hate technology

I get too easily distracted. Trying to write my papers for Phil's class.
But I'd rather watch experimental films.
You go Ben Russell.

as it (my 4500) exists right now

something else is going to evolve from this project for Recycled Images.

I can feel it.

Wow. Shit. Oh no.

1 month of school left.  I feel like FILM has taken over my brain.  I wanted to do something with HD, but I absolutely couldn't get my mind off of like, just wanting to look at film.  Wanting to touch, scratch, splice, tape.  Getting frustrated with codecs and Final Cut just wasn't doing it for me... sure, the picture looks great, but I also like looking at film projected on a wall.  It looks stunning.  I can buy an HD camera once I graduate, but it's going to be rather difficult for me to get Steenbeck time elsewhere.

Good thing this is all I'm thinking about.

So, after Pat O'Neill's work, they created all these sweet (now common) special effects on like, Final Cut.  When will they come up with that sort of contraption to make cameras easier to use?  "I'll just put it in 'dolly zoom' mode and that'll make the background look like it's being pushed back!"  It's an idea...
