Ho!

What's news, world? I'll tell you what's world news; The Egyptian government turned off their internet in an attempt to smother negative world coverage of the riots and political atrocities. I'd be pissed!

Jus' sayin'.

I hope everyone in Egypt is ok, I made this video in tribute and honour of our brothers fighting the good fight, whilst coincidentally synchronising the development of it with a uni elective film project hand in date.
(video can be enlarged here: here)

Kudos to Joe NuttalL, who's name I misspelt, thus wrongfully tarnishing his family's honour. The theme of the project was "HYBRIDITY", and so for my video I included Joe travelling to a forest and dropping some acid. He then envisions his spirit animal (me in a fox mask) and chases it around the forest until he inevitably falls into a heap on the forest floor.

Trippin'. Ballz.

The actual 'hybridity' aspect of it comes in the form of the alternate states of mind Joe experiences, and the mixture of reality and what Joe thinks is real.

I have realised, quite literally as I type this, that nobody in Egypt will be able to watch my tribute video, due to their government switching off the internet.

I kind of feel like a dick now. Hope this doesnt impede my grade.
Enjoy.
