broken strings
Partial violin found in a heap of curb-side estate sale rejects. Photo taken with a Canon S2-IS through the viewfinder of a Kodak Duaflex II.
[ As a side note, as soon as I saw the 'finished product' of this TtV on the computer screen R.E.M.'s ' Losing My Religion ' popped into my head. Anyone else feel / see the connection between the two? ]
5th March 2006 - update, sort of:
The first time I saw the video to "Losing My Religion" I was immediately reminded of my favorite short story by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, "The Very Old Man with Enormous Wings". The old man with angel's wings that falls from the sky in the video just HAD to be the same one as in the story. I was certain of it. That was 1991 and I was a sophomore, maybe a junior, in high school. Just tonight (about 1:30am on a Monday) I thought to look it up on the 'net. Sure enough, the video was based on the very story it had reminded me of ! As a side note, GGM was one of my two inspirations for our little boy's name, Gabriel. If I had had my way, that would have been Noah's first name and not his middle. Husbands. ; )
