Featured Records
I love this song soooo much… could not help it. All the images are from the gorgeous "EMPIRE" by Lawrie Brewster (see REsources). I highly REcommend it.
- Ode to Wirrow
I combined Dr. Gory video with wirrow's "coulouring fire" + some other RECords I saved for that project. Of course it's still not finished so please join in.
"Sometimes I think you come from another world and you miss it so so much"
Toss wrote those words as a REmark for wirrow and I RECorded it. I think they fit perfectly.
I tried to dig as many RECords as possible but it was hard because all the V3 RECords did not make it to V4… Also I kept a sample of that "500 Days of Summer" dialogue. Hope it will not be a problem. If so I will cut it off.
Inspired by allegraoxborough's little voice on "Walls" and her "Run, bride!" video. Also by Major Thom as Pluto "ascending the snow hill".
- Je vois des choses
Mon nom est Johanna (My name is Johanna)
But on hitRECord I'm Gimik Jo
Gimik used to be the name of the magazine I was in charge here in Belgium
I hit RECord - well - since July
Même si j'ai l'impression d'avoir toujours connu cet endroit (even though I feel like I've always known this place)
Why did I get involved in hitRECord?
Because of this guy
(Joe's voice)
J'ai enregistré ma première participation pour la Love collab
(I RECorded my first participation for the Love Collab)
Et je n'ai plus jamais cessé depuis (and I never stopped since)
I'm addicted
I hit RECord on daily basis
Tous les jours (everyday)
Je regarde (I watch)
Je m'émerveille (I marvel at things)
J'actionne mon petit coeur (I hit the heart)
Pour moi la créativité c'est regarder les choses, non pas pour ce qu'elles sont, mais pour ce qu'elles pourraient être
(For me creativity is watching things not for what they are but for what they can be)
Everything is possible
Je vois des choses (I see things)
Elles m'inspirent (They inspire me)
Je les rassemble (I gather them)
Je les transforme (I change them)
Je les mets en scène
Je ne vois pas comme quelqu'un de particulièrement créatif
(I don't see myself as someone particularly creative)
Je ne crée pas à proprement parlé
(I don't create strictly speaking)
Je ne dessine pas (I don't draw)
Je chante un peu (I sing a little)
J'écris aussi (I also write)
J'enregistre (I RECord)
My editing skills are crap
But I hit RECord
Parce qu'ici je n'ai pas peur (because here I'm not scared)
I feel safe
Peur d'être rejetée, critiquée (scared to be rejected, critized)
Souvent l'art est égoïste (Art can often be selfish)
But not on hitRECord
Ici, l'art est un effort collectif (here art is a collectif effort)
We are a community
On crée (we create)
On partage (we share)
On s'inspire (we inspire each other)
On remix (we remix)
On recrée (we recreate)
Tous ensemble (all together)
Mon apport à hitRECord/Ma contribution ?
(my contribution to hitRECord ?)
Mes yeux (my eyes)
Mon cerveau (my brain)
Mon âme (my soul)
Ma voix (my voice)
Mon coeur (my heart)
Again by heart
A few months ago Zounds RECorded this audio file in response to Wirrow's A New Earth. Ever since I heard it, I've wanted to make a video to go with it. Not totally happy with it though. If anyone has better ideas… welcome! This is work in progress.
