This project was hard. It took me a disgustingly long time because I, like the fool that I am, wanted to do more with it than I ever could. I played around on two different editions of garage band trying to figure out how to sample in the way that I wanted. After six classes of wasted time, I decided that Garage band and sampling are incompatible. So I moved on to just straight Camtasia. My life got easier and I started making progress. Unfortunately lack of time has made it impossible for me to polish this to the extent that I want to polish it to. It's a series of you tube videos, everything from failblogs, to marine uploaded combat videos, to pop culture phenomena set to the music of Aesop Rock's Tomorrow Morning. There's something terrifying about youtube. It's in the way that a video about police brutality will have links leading you to a children's show. It's in the apocalyptic preachers and the beatings and the cruelty of mockery, and the schadenfreude culture of internet videos. It's in the trillions of aspiring failiures. This is a chronicle of youtube, and therefore a chronicle of our time.
