Re: [NetBehaviour] The Problem of Health Care
Edward: This is absolutely brilliantly made - the comic timing is impeccable and it looks great. I think you've become a formidable film-maker. It bothers me that the ordinary folk in it are completely passive and none too bright, not because I think it should feature red banners blowing in the breeze but because this slightly traduces history - the NHS wasn't simply a good idea that someone had one day but arose out of the popular desire for change after the years of misery of the late 20s and the 30s, followed by WWII - something recognised by the smarter Tories: Quintin Hogg's 1943 We must give them reform or they will give us revolution.

http://theleakinyourhometown.wordpress.com/ It's a bit old - from July 2010 “the leak in your home town” is an iPhone app that lets users see the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill whenever they see a BP logo. A user simply launches the app and aims their iPhone’s camera at the nearest BP logo. What the user sees is one of the broken BP pipes coming out of the BP logo, and out of the pipe comes the oil, pluming upward. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] The Problem of Health Care
Michael - I take your point about Paul and Pauline just seeming to stand there blinking (and dying) until somebody else comes along and invents free healthcare for them. And the fact that the lightbulb representing the idea of free healthcare looks a bit similar in shape to the Dept of Health boffin's head at the end of the video, and the free healthcare idea arrives with a similar ping! effect as the current healthcare reforms, does seem to suggest that free health care is another boffin-originated notion, although a more benign one. On the other hand I don't think Paul and Pauline are entirely submissive. They do tell Peter the Premiere to piss off when he suggests that they should pay higher taxes to fund the NHS. They prefer to have cash in their pockets to spend on consumer goods. I'm not sure Peter the Premiere was ever really going to go for a high-tax, less-consumeristic society, as he's so obviously wedded to the model of constantly-expanding economic growth; but Paul and Pauline weren't prepared to sacrifice any of their spending power in any case. - Edward ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] Marc Garrett's 1st Valentines Day experience...
Marc - This is so wierd! I seriously like the soundtrack, and I include your narrative in that. To me, the strangest aspect is the insistence that the Valentine picture represents you as a robot pulling your own heart out. Assuming that the picture at valentines_day.htm is meant to be the same one described in the mp3 - which seems a reasonable inference - then it's a very odd representation of a robot. The only thing that looks robotic about it is the elbow, which seems to have a hinge in it - and, I suppose, the fact that the figure is smiling as he contemplates his own pulled-out heart, although this suggests a freakish reversal of normal human feeling rather than robotic detachment. And why would a robot, if it really was a robot, pull its own heart out? Why would a robot even have a heart? What comes to mind is something like the tin man in the Wizard of Oz, who hides a sentimental soul inside a mechanical exterior - so, robot as in metallic outer shell rather than mechanical all the way through. Where the piece really works is that this is really explained, or illuminated, by the contrast between your reading voice - wry, self-deprecating, but obviously human - and that hammering, pinging, rather frenetic music. There's a real sense of human consciousness being captured inside some kind of unstoppable machinery - and maybe what this machinery really equates to is not your hard, robotic exterior, but your uncontrollable emotions; because what really drives the story is the fact that you thought you were in love. The real machinery here is the irresistible driving force of infatuation, the delusions it drives us into, the things it makes us do, the risks it forces us to take against our better judgement - risks which are both appalling and liberating. As you say yourself, What can you do? and Sometimes you have to fuck things up. - Edward ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] Cheating with Jogia Sarangi
Cheating with Jogia Sarangi http://www.alansondheim.org/raspless.mp3 The jogia sarangi is one of the most difficult instruments I've played. Aden Evans gave me his, and I found a dilruba bow which works with it. Unfortunately, it will take me quite a while to begin to make it sound beautiful (if I can at all). It has three main playing strings, but for some reason the bridge is flat, allowing fingering on only the two outer ones. The strings are stopped, not by pressing them down, but, as on the sarangi itself, by pressing the nails or the skin above the nails, against the side of the string. The three playing strings are gut; there are also seven drone strings. I find it incredibly difficult to tune; in any case, I made a recording, and then proceeded to use filtering to somewhat imitate the way the instrument should actually sound. It was interesting to me that after playing it, I went back and played violin and viola; they seemed simple in relation. I ran exuberantly up and down the necks! I sounded good. In any case, here's the jogia sarangi, somewhat modified: beware! ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
