the above
video is a work in progress taken from a segment of a
conversation with VideoLetters filmmakers Eric van den Broek
and Katarina Rejger and myself (geo geller) after a
screening at the Human Rights Watch film festival in NYC in
2005 - editors note: my camera froze in zoom mode and
mindbogglingly stayed there - the sound needs to be tweaked
and this is only a segment and rough cut - to be continued
