1991 Video Project – Sanctuary January 21st, 2014
I’m watching some old video art projects from back in college, half a lifetime ago. This was one of the early ones, so it’s pretty rough.
It’s pretentious and earnest and full of energy. I miss that creative overdrive. For all its flaws and how dorky I was back then, this made me smile as often as it made me cringe.
2013 Daily Montage Video January 15th, 2014
I want to get back into video editing. For now though, I’m using the 1 Second Everyday app to make a daily video montage. Here’s the (sometimes) thrilling video from 2013.
Warning: contains gratuitous cat footage.
Cat Slideshow April 25th, 2010
Created 04/15/08
I was inspired to do something goofy for a belated birthday gag for my friend Matt, so this afternoon I made a video slide-show of all the cat photos I have saved to my hard drive.
Damn 635 images take a long time to display, 10:35 to be precise. On one hand it demonstrates my obsessive collecting behavior, but on the other hand pictures of cats are always nice. Happy cat viewing folks, enjoy it or not.

The video was made with a fun little shareware application, the Slide Show Movie Maker.
I was hoping to get a sound file of the original old-timey “Alley Cat” song for the project, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I did find this neat song of the same name by musician Jason Sturges, which has a nice jazzy beat.
