# 00024 - trouvaille 002


so far, this platform has been made of photographs and some meager words, taken and uttered by me, yours truly.. but eventually, even i have to keep up with the times.. so, despite my turtle-ish approach regarding innovation – meaning being not only annoyingly languorous but also irrationally skeptical about anything new, bright and shiny with – by any chance – more than four knobs on it – , I’m venturing head-on into something that might well be the next big thing: the video..

on a different note and although (or maybe because) i’m considering myself a demonstrative record collector and concert goer, i’ve kind of made a point of not rendering any sort of review or criticism on here.. as hippie as this might sound, this platform serves exclusively to behold phenomena that interest or entertain me in a pleasant way.. having said this, everything posted here is a benevolent suggestion to pass time.. no more, no less..

so without further ado, i’ll humbly present to you the first handful of videos..


the first of the two segments, an ongoing series on ‘sampling’ and ‘remixing’, entitled "everything is a remix", created by kirby ferguson, points out how there really isn’t anything new under the sun, besides the rejuvenating force of creativity (which - as you will learn at the latest in part 3 - is not so highty-tighty either).. so far, three mini-films have been published and the fourth is on its way.. for further information you might want to visit the site of this series..



as a complement and to tie these crafty films to the realm of urban(esque) culture, let’s close with an appealing film, "the process. (a beatmaking film)" by hypoetical (adriel almirol), on the process of beatmaking (d'uh?!)..




(stumbled upon on sampling changed our life.. check it out!)
