DRY MOUTH (2.35 MB)
I know this clip is pretty big. Sorry. While you're waiting,
I'll explain what I was trying to do.
First. I'll make excuses for the text I (mistakenly) chose.
I want my project to get at the universals of sleep (if there
are universals when it comes to something so intimate). I guess
it's like getting at the universals of sex: the real stuff is
in the personal details. Anyhow, I (stupidly) thought that medical
language might get at this concept. NO. No, it certainly doesn't.
Second. I liked the corpse-like quality of the body (it made
it seem like the hand was not only writing on top of the body,
but also reaching into it). However, this doesn't really communicate.
It's still in my own head right now and I haven't found a good
way to get it our.
Third. Well. The mistake of using video instead of static typing
is that you miss the movement of the actual body. The small
changes in breathing are trumped by that sporatic hand. So I
basically shot myself in the foot trying to make this thing
better.
Fourth. Well, the colors are really bad. Look at 'em.
Fifth. Shit. I don't have anything else to say and I bet than
video still hasn't loaded.
