Amazing amazing amazing amazing documentary pieces. Filmmaker turned "media artist" Henry Hills (creator of ubuweb) edited the interviews young Emma Bee Bernstein (daughter of Charles Bernstein) made with artists and poets of New York.
Communication is completely undermined by editing process. Interesting and engaging, not sure to what extent communication will be withheld in my own editing processes as I'm yet to experiment with my raw footage but there will be a lot of playing around.

Waking Life
Watched Waking Life today. A few interesting points: animation is shared by a group of animators resulting in various styles. It keeps the film interesting to watch because the novelty of rotoscope animation doesn't grow old.
The film is sort of set out as a series of interviews in a way, the protagonist essentially finds himself in conversations with various people who speak their mind and various philosophical ideas are raised, mostly existential.
Looking at the way this film is edited will help me edit my own footage. Might do a tiny teeny weeny little bit of rotoscoping.
