CD Squad Synergy!

I'm loving the way this club is a'bumpin' and a'thumpin' along.

I say we now -- given the amount of tech geeks in attendance -- branch out to include the occasional member-made video.

This is, of course, largely because I've already made a couple of music videos and have one to post.

But I'd love to see more pop up.

Here's my entry which a few of you have already seen. And as I've also noted in the Youtube comments, your enjoyment of this will be greatly improved if you click "VIEW IN HIGH QUALITY" in the lower right-hand margins of the screen, which you can really only access by following this link:

This was cobbled together from random footage I shot with a point-and-shoot, using only natural light, usually while on my dinner breaks from work. Flimsy as it is, it owes great debts to the early work of Gus Van Sant and to the wonderful closing credits in the film, "Comedian."

I used MovieMaker to cut it together. It's like if Fisher-Price made editing software.

And the car in question is our very own Subaru. I was driving *and* shooting *and* had to avoid that yellow car that pulled out in front of me as I was coming up on it.
