Geneva, 2009, Tram http://www.alansondheim.org/tram.jpg https://youtu.be/fHs1B7sAKUE VIDEO Geneve Thanks to Foofwa d'Imobilite Now closer to the original. 3.61 gigabytes. Something comforting in the vector. This motion, traffic lights changing automatically as the tram approach, this perfect, miniscule, vector. This traversal. I still dream these. The largest - driving across the U.S. from Dallas to Los Angeles nonstop, filming one frame every six seconds (super 8mm) the whole way except for the pitch black night. Alone in the car, around 24 1/2 hours non-stop, the camera mounted next to me. Another vector. There was also a broken vector from Atlanta to Dallas earlier. On the longer I hallucinated the last couple of hours, lamp-posts bending towards the road at dawn. But the Geneve vector! Fabulous, the city coming towards the relativity of the immobile tram, as if it were that. The slightest of the cosmos, now, later, a murmur of history, none of this is as it was or might have been. The last time I saw Foofwa, close to a decade ago. The last time I saw Geneve, well before that. The dawn might be coming up, it was then. Now earlier, more: Had special permission to ride with the driver on the tram 12 line. So 8 gigabytes across town with PAL smooth. Snowy as usual. Then reduced to 300 megs just for an HLA compression to MP4. Tried for standard .mov and it hit 1.7 gigabytes, not very clear. Sorensen compression set at 70% 640 x 512 or some such. Tried for .avi at Cinepak 80% but rendering would take a full day. The length of the thing is 36 minutes. Don't have a full day and .avi usually looks bad anyway. Tried for a 20x15 pixel for the Net. That blurred out, uninteresting. Went up to 80x60, increased contrast, close to hzero Sorensen. That was interesting. Saved in QT and doubled looped the size. 13+ megabytes. The image is pointillist to say the least. But beautiful running on the desk, why not? You might even save it, run it full-screen. The original is still on the tape. The movement is perfect, smooth. Had to remove the sound, that added 35 megabytes at mono 8-bit 8k. At least you see grey and some colors. The colors are more than I saw. The increased contrast brought them out. It brought out Geneva for me. Thanks to the bus company. "The dawn might be coming up, it was then." ------ 17c17 < hours, lamp-posts bending towards the road at dawn. But the Geneve ---
