Yes indeed. 1998. We had moved from Adelaide to Horsham. I had my very own Apple Mac and Adobe Premiere. This is full of symbolism (eg. the fleeting footage of a native American dancing to correspond with "his world would not receive him"). Copyright issues. yeah, I guess, but it was 1998 and it was the Wild West. This is raw, uncompromising, footage, a forceful collage of jutxaposition, cutting edge poesis and harmonic symmetry. And back in the day when 360 x 240 pixels was the thing... Yeah, I'm talking hardcore small pixels here. And did I mention (1) layers, (2) animation, (3) alpha channel text, and (d) al of the above combined at times...
It sill brings tears to my eyes. (ah, Premiere, where are you now. Gone, gone, gone)..
In 1998, to say "god@earth.com" was cutting edge and cool. The old folks went "what the??"
I used this to "wow" people at events a few times back then... Think of it as Proost 1998...
