movement is the difference in the image within the larger enframed video. it is also the difference between the internally enframed videos and the enframing video, and between the enframed videos and their variable surface, therefore:
variable images across the surface of the video + variable embedded videos + embedded video space = movement as difference
this is an introduction of the ideas of hypertext into time based media. plural windows (multiple video frames), variable readings, readerly choices. more importantly, like hypertext, it is trying to rethink video as a writerly space. in barthes's sense of the writerly.
this vog is 4.5mb. the 1 movie consists of 14 internal tracks. the controller is present so that you can pause, or not. or download it, or not. or vary the volume first. or not. because of the 14 tracks it tends not to do anything until all the content has arrived. there are three sound tracks. where you mouse determines volume and which track you hear, in the middle of each panel all 3 tracks are mixed equally.
