I like how Jesper is sort of inconspicously lurking in the shot, at the end.
I thought about doing a game of this in Blacksburg in the Fall, back when I was down there. It would be interesting to see this play out in a southern virginian town, as opposed to downtown SF. About now it could be downright therapuetic.
Great video: I personally liked the fellow with the earbuds ambushing the family. It got me thinking about the complex strategies that go into the game.
The video also made me realize how profoundly overwhelming it would be to not be a part of the game and get a simultaneous compliment from 10+ people...
Well done, well done. If this were a 19th century study rather than a blog we would swish glasses of brandy at this point and one of us, probably myself, would mutter 'indeed,indeed.'
Brilliant! Kudos to both Jane and Kiyash - and thanks for the great example of your work.
I teach a class that looks at popular political ideas as seen through film (stick with me a moment). This week, we're screening "Children of Men," which I chose because it talks about HOPE as a political force. Political theorists have filled libraries with treaties on the power of fear - but almost no one has seriously engaged HOPE.
Jane, I think your work is a great step in that direction; I plan to show them this video at the end of class this week.
