Marc:
It's great!
I love the distancing of the narrative voice (you but not you) and the careful,
quite literary, pacing and structure of the text.
The music (I love that four note - with the fourth note repeated -motif which
dominates the middle section, humourous but also urgent) drives it on
beautifully.
It manages to be both affecting, touching, but also formally engaging so that
our immediate emotional response (agonised self-identification in my case)
doesn't exhaust our responses...
A thought: you should post the stems as a remix competition on FF and send it
to this site:
http://www.remixcomps.com/submit
It'd be interesting to see what emerged!
cheers
michael
