Pop-up video...

Yo so I looked at the date of my last post, and it was literally over three months ago. I've been thinkin' about calling it quits, but Jay and Jordan came back, so why not the Remo. They tell me it's like riding a bike, "You never forget." Well, I ride slowly with trepidation and simple understanding.

So remember the beautifully executed idea of "Pop-up" video. I mean damn, VH1 nailed that gimmick and nailed it well. The dichotomy of the show was so simple: narrative of song overlaying the motion of video, and then splice in a few tidbits of surplus info about author, creater, and/or anyone including Kevin Bacon. I mean it's so simple it leaves you with the thought, "Why didn't I think of that?"

With that in mind, I spent one evening walking in thought, and I don't know if it was the 5th avenue trumpeter, but I wondered what my whole life would look like with juxtapozed bubbles of narrative.

Then I asked myself, "What would Dawson Leary do?" So then I dissected my thoughts even more, and accompanied it with a Sarah Mclachlan ballad and wondered if these thought bubbles could separate the good and bad.

The tale of my manhood and the Randall Flagpole on a frigid winter's eve: Good
"If I wasn't such a pussy I would've left your ass in Rome": Good
Playing GoldenEye with David Ritchie: Good
Getting slaughtered at GoldenEye by David Ritchie: Bad

I don't know how to end this. I guess I forgot how to use the brakes on these damn bikes. Well if I fall or hit someone or something, come and pick me up...

Be Relentless,
Peace
