there wasn't an existing video for this - a magical song capable of dispersing the clouds on the gloomiest of days - dondolo ditty, so i thought that i'd experiment for the first time with imovie to see what i could conjure that could possibly do it justice. whether or not the band had the same dystopian/utopian dichotomy in mind when they wrote this tune, i cannot say. i expect not...but when i hear this song, i cannot help but ponder the future of the planet, the future or pleasure and the transience of both of those things. the main message i'm trying to convey is some shred of hope for human redemption.
i do not own any of the images i've used, so i extend all gratitude to henri cartier-bresson, jr, space invader, banksy & all the others whose work i've purloined. thank you - & sorry!
if anyone would like to translate this text into french, i would be much obliged. my french isn't yet quite up to the task, sadly. :(
if you feel compelled to comment, remember: i didn't have a clue what i was doing!
merci!
