A very interesting discussion this has been! But I have to say, with regard to Simon Biggs' comments, that I find it difficult to embrace any philosophy of art which won't let me measure one thing against another - Wallace Stevens is a better poet than Patience Strong, for example; or The

Michael - I'd be very interested to know the original on which this is based. I had a quick Google, and found an image of A RUBBER BALL THROWN AT THE SEA in big blue letters on a white wall. If that's the original, then you've done a lot with it. - Edward

Dave - For this one I used Multiquence, which is quite simple and intuitive (with a fair range of effects), but it struggles with anything Quicktime, so I had to translate a couple of movies into .avi format before I could use them. The vocal is mine, but it's a quote from Tomorrow Never

I agree with Simon and Ruth - this is really good. I liked the remix to start with, but the video really gives it an extra dimension, and it's a really well-designed and well-engineered bit of work: first that triple-split screen, then those frosty-pine-woods images, with hints of Red Riding

Michael - I take your point about Paul and Pauline just seeming to stand there blinking (and dying) until somebody else comes along and invents free healthcare for them. And the fact that the lightbulb representing the idea of free healthcare looks a bit similar in shape to the Dept of Health

Marc - This is so wierd! I seriously like the soundtrack, and I include your narrative in that. To me, the strangest aspect is the insistence that the Valentine picture represents you as a robot pulling your own heart out. Assuming that the picture at valentines_day.htm is meant to be the
