I showed the video that i have been working on for the past 5 days today. When the video ended, there was no applause, only a blank gapping scilence. When i told them it was over, they clapped, a manditory clap, and then my critique began. I still dont think i can call this a bad critique, i mean, this was better than anything Jane Rosen ever said about my work. it was just not very good, the mood was mixed between me being too simplistic at one point and too abstract at others. The worst line as from Kevin, who at the very end equated my pain staking effect work to imovies ken burns effect, and i cant even see where the two have anything in common. I am starting to feel that part of me just gets really tired really quick, it is begging the second part of the semester once again, and i feel like doing things my way. Jane Rosen hated me for that.
Something else that i am realizing is that i just like narritive structures, i mean, i just love them, and i have a desire just to get inside them.
I really like this video that i showed today, and i am not ready to shelf it and walk away, but i need some other element, i need to get it away from me, or i need to make it all me, i need to escape fixed sound, i need to create more clues, and less clues, i need to say what i want to say and be straight about it.

ive been feeling really lonely as of late, i dont know if it is just cause of berkeley or what?
at the confrence ii realized i have nothing to contribute, and that i am only a freshman with some bizzare ideas that only four people have called genious, and everyone else just looks at me cock eyes %-) just like picasso
