learning the ropes

still alive voice over

Joy’s friend April came over to record sample snippets of my overheard cell phone conversations. She created beautiful characters; here is one. I remember this conversation well- I overheard it at the Starbucks near St Luke’s hospital.  It had  long pauses and the “speaker” was very quiet. Michael and I will use these elements to experiment. What is the effect of hearing one single voice, and then another added on top, and then another, and so on? We’ll see.

Michael working on Rope&Pulley, etc, etc, etc!

I’m brainstorming about ways to mount the projectors we’ll be borrowing from DPI onto the AutoPoles Wendy is purchasing.  I’ve found other ways to do this, but they are a bit pricey.

A typical email exchange:

Hi Michael
Yesterday was v helpful. I am reflecting!
Quick Q:
Was it hard to make those stand-alone stands for the digital frames? I think it wd be a good way to have a bunch of  frames around the room for our showing, so I am thinking about buying some cheap lamps– approx 6 of them. ( we already have 2 that you made)
If it is easier, we could avoid having the cord run thru the pole.
What do you think?

They are not so hard to make… I’ve attached a picture of the parts…  It is easier to not run the cord through the pole.  Gaffer’s tape on the back will keep things in check.
