I Just Wanna Whizzscape: 'The Cyclist' -- well you won't miss him -- he debuts early on wearing a brown jacket taking up position centre screen. In total his appearance lasts for not much more than a minute, and for most of this time he is stationary, yet his dramatic entrances and exits ensure that he is the significant content and hero of this short feature. In addition there is the cast of hundreds, the busy traffic and buildings of Bishopsgate, London EC2, and a glitzy soundtrack provided by Livingston Taylor . Observers of the whizzscape form will note that the camera is situated at a 45 degree angle to the action -- a novelty, but the mode of necessity when recording along busy high streets with large shop fronts and office windows thereby avoiding unwanted reflections.
