Christopher Walker --- General Thoughts

To anyone who runs my project... please don't get offended. It's not complete, but there's vulgarity and sexual references. It's meant to be an unfiltered look at the mind (most likely mine). There will be some unpleasant subject matter in this. I'm going to try to create a typical story outline (background... progression into a climax into a resolution)... or I may just hang that idea and go with something unconventional (hopefully not boring). The script works best in a unix or linux environment (with a large terminal). Otherwise the ASCII images will look distorted (I'm trying to think of a solution).

Just out of the blue... one thing we haven't discussed is as a method of narration is music videos. So, I think this one may be worthy of checking out.

It's Swedish pop techno. It's been stuck in my head for the past week... enjoy.

Keep in mind, it has to get a story across in 3-4 minutes. It's also a strange medium because it's so short... but so much effort can be put into music videos.

Only three colors are used throughout the video... with obvious references to terrorism and torture.

Just food for thought.
