Back to school

I have never been as happy to be back at work as I am this morning. Being sick, and actually being sick - i.e. theres nothing you can do about it, you are actually confined to barracks - is rubbish. I hate it, its so frustrating. By about 1500 yesterday the fog was lifting and whilst idly flicking through my removeable hard drive for something to fill the time I found a load of camera phone clips from the school.

At the time of filming these clips I was on my own, and it felt a bit wierd to be filming oneself, but my motives were less narcissistic than at first they may appear. The board was to be closed, and I wanted some record of these - my favorite (or some of) problems. Also, these problems are/were hard. They took me a lot of effort, and I wanted to be able to look back at them - I wanted something for my trouble. So here it is, the fruits of those labours :

They're camera phone clips which I have been meaning to do something with for ages, but havent had time/technology to convert from MP4. I've been absolutely riddled with cold over the last few days, so much I took yesterday off work and when I felt a bit better in the afternoon cobbled the above together.

It was deliberate there is no swanky soundtrack. It contributes to the lo fi feel, and also its nice to remember the other thing the school was known for - techno!
