I’ve ended up reworking five of my video works this year with a re-edit. It wasn’t that I was unhappy with them, but I left them thinking they needed something more, but I couldn’t quite think what.

It will start this Saturday, February 1st at 2pm SL time. Hopefully, everything will go well. I was invited to produce some work for it, and there is a long […]
