there is also something called stretch film which if it became viable could be relevant here. I only know of one person who actually made something like it (using LiveStage Pro). the idea (comes from stretch hypertext) is that you have, say, a 2 minute version of the work, but at any point

I think as Bill describes in his more recent post, imagine you've got heaps of short clips, each more or less about the same thing. Instead of editing them into works, or publishing them as single clips, imagine a cloud of clips, with for instance tags. (Simplest model.) Then you could use

hi all Jay and I (he's currently in Melbourne, god bless 'im) were talking about similar stuff yesterday. Seth Keen has a system that partly does this. it is intended for more curatorial sorts of things, but relies on tags to collect clips. I've built similar, now defunct, things ages

Yep, but in some contexts we don't want or need to do this. eg observational doco, ethnography. And we can also think about how on one hand having a constraint like editing in camera etc is highly productive (in Melbourne we have, or had, the white gloves festival which was film, one roll,

quoting myself (on strike today so diligently not doing work...) there was a hypercard stack made by an anthropologist/ethnographer years ago that let her add video and then in effect tag it (it was before we had tags) so that observational footage could be restructured in multiple ways.

Jay Adrian, thanks for the examples of video tagging. Seth Keen's work looks very cool. I always thought mpeg7 would be used for this but haven't heard much about it anymore ( only looked into it years ago for some facial recognition stuff which didn't end up happening). I shoot way too much

Everyone's different about shooting ratios and frequency and what works for them, but I've found quite an opposite situation: when I place an arbitrary limit on my shooting - e.g., ok, you can only shoot ten minutes during the next two days, or for this particular journey into the world, or you
