James,
You wrote about Cari's writing style:
"not everyone has the patience of reading everything aloud a few times to get
the nuances of Joyceian rhythms and wordplays in the context of general
correspondence. "
But isn't this the response that we experimental filmmakers get about
experimental film? Many viewers, who feel film should be easy "entertainment"
(analogy to "general correspondence") don't have the patience to do the mental
work required to appreciate it. Not all experimental work asks a lot from the
viewer, but some does. And I think the same thing applies to how Cari writes.
Yes, I had to read her posts a few times, but I enjoyed the process. And since
this is a forum about experimentation, then why not experiment within the forum
itself?
Nicole
