The dawn of a new era

0 Comments POSTED ON Sep 12 2006 AT 8:00 am BY Beat

We’ve been experimenting with our video blogging, and the next fruit of our labor is up now. We realize that we’re not very good at this—it is not truly our metier, as it were—but we are learning many things about communication and imagery and our attention span. So we’ll probably keep doing it for a little while, even though it is stupid time consuming.

We do notice that walking around with a video camera is way more obtrusive than just a pad and pencil or a regular camera, something which we’re vaguely uncomfortable with. And yet video, crude and homemade, seems to be the language of a new generation. Like we said, we’re going to fool around with it, but sticking with it is another thing.
