Hi there, emers all

Sorry to have missed a cluster video last month. I actually had completed one, but have been sitting on it for the last month. But anyway, I'm releasing it today. It's a performance of The Turn done in a new technique I call "ghost cluster." (Sorry about this nutty names!) I have several other videos in the works with the same technique, some a lot more elaborate. But I like this performance, and as live performances go I'm really proud of it, so here ya go...

I will be uploading to my vimeo page soon too, and will edit this with a link when it's ready, so you can watch in higher res.

Hope you enjoy this spooky performance.

amazing! love it when the light moves!

thanks, reehc. Yeah, I'm really happy with the way that came out. Glad you like it.

pure magic! i love it!

Thanks, Astroboy! Can't wait to be finished with the next video which uses this technique. I'm working with a violist for that one. Same song though, ha!

BRILLIANT!!!!!!1

muchos gracias. I'm glad you liked it, bleen.

oh fucking hell mister fredo...you've done it now.......................

*gets plane to fredo's house, kneels, proposes marriage, unrequited, mutters profanities, returns to uk* nevermind...i got to kneel before the mighty fredo!

truly lush and amazing. i am blown away.

incredibly intense/awkward

I liked the very last part a lot.
I've heard this track before.

Seen the previous video.

But, damn, this really moved me this morning... when the 6 fredos all merges back together and hit that solid moment in the middle of the song there, I literally teared up.

so now I hafta nut up and end with a joke, brush off that emotion.

Who you gonna call? GHOST CLUSTERS!

thanks sAMsKi!

@jmdaly, my feeling is that tenseness makes the final release at the end stronger. I had wondered about how folks would respond to a video that makes them focus on a tense subject for five minutes. Does it not work for you? Maybe it's not for everyone I guess. Anyway, thanks for the comment.

hahahahahahh!!! lol, mlbot! Hilarious! I'm really happy to hear it had an effect on you, man. Thanks so much.

lol @ mlbot. funny bugger.

seems the vimeo version has been uploading for days.. i wonder if theres a problem with the upload?

i thought this said "ghost busters" and i was disappointed.

but then i watched and i can say that this is cooler than ghost busters.

This is so excellent, man! I know there was a lot of forethought and planning and skill going into making it, but one of the things I love about it is how simple it is in a way. Even though the effect is basically understandable (layering video and playing with light and placement) it's still totally magical. All the subtle ways the light in the room and on the TV add up and flicker around is so awesome.

More more!
