My latest video poem. Different approach, since I was originally inspired to do something with Auth's drawings I saw on this site. Sifting through this remarkable work it came to me to use them as illustrations for a poem that continues a book length poem I work at sporadically, the great man. I turned again to Moderan for music, and as always happens, he had a piece perfect for this with transitions that just seem to fall in exactly the right place.
I made the video with Auth's art, structured it with Moderan's music, then wrote the words inspired by the visuals.
Don't try this at home. :-)
This is not a "trailer": it's a work of art; But the collaboration of three artists almost makes it a sort of "commercial" for all three of us, and there are three of us spreding it around. I think this is something to keep in mind for videos and promotional stuff.
THE GREAT MAN -- Hexagram 37
Anybpdy interested in what this poem is like, this link to a downloadble pdf brings it into a little better focus. (But without the cool drawings)
