This is the story that never ends

and it goes on and on my friends.

Some people
thought I was winging it
not knowing just because,
I was acting so damn weird,
let's blame it on the drugs.

eh'em. I ran across this:



It reminded me of what might only be described as my senior thesis. My department didn't really do those but I felt it was necessary to leave some sort of mark. That mark became a series of three videos that were to describe me creating a new identity. This new identity was supposed to be the representation of what was desired and digestible by the populous. I wore clothes I didn't like buying or wearing. I tried to act as though I was better than what was going on around me. I tried to exemplify the saddest remarks being made by the culture and the commercialization of my generation. I'm not sure anyone got it but I did make a Neverending Story reference in my last video. This was where the Jurassic Park and Back to the Future and Ghostbusters I grew up with manifested for my own redefinition.



I actually put the intro and the outro together before taping it. I timed the interaction that I had with my videotape self and left a blank space in the tape. I presented the video of me presenting something and being eaten as my "portfolio piece" in class! No one really knew I was going to be standing up and interacting with the footage. My buddy, Dave Ball, was in on it and in that black space, we recorded that interaction in class. After I stopped it, I revealed to the audience that I just made my final and they were all a part of it. That is the video I am sharing on YouTube here.

Check out the others for what might be context. It's maybe nonsense too.
