I was interested in the motion of foreground (scratched window) midground (passing girders) and background (Skyline) and how that might relate to individual sounds in a piece of music. The music is from Autechre.

I dug up this old footage after a discussion on this vid:

looks great, it makes me want to dig up some of my line stuff. I have a few that I shot from above the lines while I was working.
Alex Itin 5 months ago

We should start a Vimeo Connecting Lines project, or some such.
Charlie McCarthy 5 months ago

That would be a good contribution project. I think anybody who has ever had a video camera while being in a car has shots of lines. Maybe try to get people to submit a short clip and combine them all into one piece would be interesting.
Alex Itin 5 months ago

I think so too

So who edits? You? or Remmy?
Charlie McCarthy 5 months ago

I would love to edit it.
Alex Itin 5 months ago

got to start a video challenge... maybe next week.
