I have always liked the voice of William S. Burroughs and I’ve always wanted to do something with the Origin and Theory of the Tape Cut-Ups clip.

Now I have.

Also includes a cut-up example by Brion Gysin.

I liked it very much You might want to look at some of John Cages music he was going along a similar theme with music/sound.Your film technique amplified the theme and by doing so gave it something fresh.

With that wire, or line.

How did you do that wire shaking words effect? It's really interesting.

It's pretty simple actually. The waveform effect in After Effects applied to a spiral shaped path.

Brilliant, really creative and stimulating.
