nothing special, just a music video.
the goings-on of graduation weekend. I feel obliged to post this... I just finished schooling after all. Featured are my family in all sorts, the ceremony, an after dinner (tasting a maple martini)... and every video I have of bennington.
and now I'm in burlington and there are surely more to come.
music is r.e.m. place is bennington for the last. people are my family, sophie, jacob, and lots of alana's back.

normal for my age
this is my final project for a class entitled (Re)Presenting Culture, and introduction to ethnographic film. I collaborated with three high school students from central Vermont, posed the question "show me your life", and used their collected footage to edit a final video.
I believe strongly in subject-generated media. This video doesn't truely realize this goal, however, by the many minutes of footage that each student captured and how differently each of them depicted themselves, I feel like this was a step in the right direction. My only hope was that they feel justly represented (not truely, just through my own perspective) and perhaps a little empowered to continue exploring self-representation.
I'd certainly appreciate any dialogue on this video. And thank you for the patience it takes to view it.Â

a warmed house.
a snapshot of sophie's and my apartment-warming party this past weekend. Simply a mellow time with good people and good spirit.Â
I like watching how people move. Some movements are relaly subtle, others explosive. Slowing this down just made sense to me.
music is koop. place is the ice cream parlor. people are an assortment of friends of the cause.
