PLAY THIS LOUD!
In something of a festive mood. I suppose you could call this one Obooma! Last week I watched the fireworks and it occurred to me (vis a vis Blake's Weekend Project) that I was surrounded by two friends of mine who are drummers. Wouldn't it be great to pull drum rhythms out of all that cacophonous banging in the sky? So this is my fairly lame first attempt. I'm sure there are folks who could, or already have done this better. Seemed to me it might make a fun summer vimeo project to compile some good firework footage with good sounds, now we need a vj who understands beats.

    i think you're the only one who really understood the project.
  • Alex Itin plus 2 years ago
    I sort of noticed that, but I didn't want to say anything.

    I guess you have to be REALLY specific with these projects.
  • Haha I know I realized shortly after I posted the blog description on my video that mine didn't really work so I took it off.

    I think you and Victoria did it best.

  • I really enjoyed this a lot.

    such a good edit.

    Thanks Karen. It totally pales to what I imagine could be done with aerial fire beats, but I hope it has some charm none the less.
  • Alex Itin plus 2 years ago
    OH yeah and I was thinking of you as I made this. Happy Birthday Karen (I guess I missed it by a few... but...)
  • hahah you're sweet thanks Alex. I love fireworks!
