Timestamped notes will be synced with the film:

For example, if you want to read the entirety of my BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN book, you can load a copy of the film (there's one on Vimeo at the moment) and grab the text pack I've uploaded on the Stanford Digital Repository (link below).

If you want to read someone else's notes, or if you want to continue working on notes you started previously, choose the folder with those notes.
October 5, 2025 at 5:06 PM
If you want to write new notes, create a new folder.
October 5, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Next you'll be prompted to "Choose a folder for new or existing notes."
October 5, 2025 at 5:06 PM
You'll be prompted to choose a video file on your computer, and a window will open to do so.
October 5, 2025 at 5:06 PM
When you're ready to move beyond the demos and either write about (or take notes on) a film of your choosing, or read notes that someone else has composed about a film, click the "Load Video" button at the top.

"Demo 1" demonstrates its function as a reader (with an excerpt of my BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN book). "Demo 2" shows how to use it for composition (the text window is a blank slate for writing notes about Thomas Edison's 1910 FRANKENSTEIN, which you'll see in the video window).

Theorizing the installation work I've been doing with the non/phenomenal collective (Brett Amory, Karin Denson,
and me) as a "hodological laboratory" -- drawing on Sartre's theorization of non-Euclidean lived space.

Today (9/13 at 1pm), I'll be talking about "Bodies, Codes, and Hodological Space" at Gray Area Festival in SF!
